List Of ColdFusion Functions

Word Count: 162

This weekend I was working on article that should make it to a browser near you soon. I was trying to go over the general features of the ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML). I was trying to figure out how I could get a count of all functions in ColdFusion so that I could say "ColdFusion comes packaged with over {x} functions and {x} tags. I was trying to figure out an easy way to do this when I remembered that there may be a function that can accomplish this. If you dig through the docs you will come across the getFunctionList() method that will return a structure of all functions in ColdFusion. I am not quite sure why the function returns a structure with empty keys instead of a list or an array but it works. Here is a quick dump of some of the functions.

Yep, one of the things I'll do when I get a new beta is run the func to see if I see anything cool in there.

FYI, you got a small display bug here. When I mouse over any of the labels for the comment form (like Name), the label disappears. I think it's the bg color. When I mouse over Remember my Info, it turns brown, which is the same color as the background of this form. The radio buttons have a gray background, so it works, but the other labels do not.
