No, that isn't a bug. You have to create new ones.

I have a wierd problem. None of my COL files which usied to work perfectly with builder 2 are not being accepted by the Builder 3. I am using a trial version. Is that the issue? Please help.

Oh, good to hear. And always a useful “trick” to try in such situations. Of course, it’s not really a help to understanding “why” things break like that, but at least it’s a way to recover and move on, when desperate. Glad to help.

Thanks Charlie! That did it. Fortunately, I am just getting started with my setup, so no big deal in working with the new workspace.

A common solution to problems with CFB (or a way to confirm if something is a “real bug”) is to create a new workspace (with the file menu in Windows, perhaps the Mac menu in OS X). You can revert back to the previous one if you note its location. Often that will show that the problem does not occur in the new workspace, and so it is some sort of configuration issue—or could be a bug, but if you can just work with the new workspace (and reconfigure it to your satisfaction with whatever desirable settings you had in the previous workspace).

Hey fergusondj, if it's not too much trouble, can you please export your Syntax Coloring (ColdFusion > Profiles > Editor > Syntax Coloring) and post the file here? I am wondering if I somehow jacked mine up. Thanks in advance.

Hm... Odd. Any ideas on what could have happened? If not, thanks anyway. The only thing I can think of is that I downloaded the trial and then applied the license key. In any case, I will keep troubleshooting and report back.

I am on MacOSX as well. I am unable to see what you are seeing.

Yes, I just confirmed the project settings.

Here is what I see. Are you on a Windows or Mac OSX? I am on Mac OSX.

Since @fergusondj confirmed it is working in CFB3, are you sure you have the dictionary set to CF 11 in your project settings?

I took your exact code and pasted it into a doc in CFB3. I don't see any color coding issues.

In the example below, the <cfclient> tags are red, but not for the <cfinclude> tag.

<!--- All cfclient code to creat dynamic HTML and

interface with data access CFC is in the following included file --->

</cfclient>

Similarly, the <html> tags are blue, but not the <head> tags

<html>

<head>

table th {

text-align:left;

}

</style>

</head>

</html>
