I cant get all the Coldfusion pages to work in the Tutorials that are provided with Interakt software. I cant find any completed .cfm pages in the sample cfm pages included with the software download. Does anyone know of any completed code "Tutorials" .cfm pages that I can download or get access to the code?

Hello,

We chose not to offer the completed versions of the tutorials for our software. The reasons for this are:

  • The learning process is encouraged. You start from the beginning and work your way up. We considered that following this line is much better, as before we kept getting support claims from people who did not follow the correct procedure. This way, you are forced to do all the steps in the proper order.
  • Having a correct example is a way to go, but previously, users tended to copy the example and not actually do the tutorial. This posed rather great issues, as any modifications they wanted to bring would ruin the whole page and the purpose of the tutorial was lost as they did not learn anything new.
  • One important reason we have given up the full tutorial pages is time. With every new release we needed to build a complete application all over again for each of the tutorials involved. We would rather spend this time giving you new tutorials each day. Hope you feel the same way here.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards,
Florin
