not meaning to sound rude or anything, but... it's easy t
blame the
tools when skills are lacking...
without defining your own css, all your pages will have the
[ugly]
default looks defined by the browser rendering them.
same with the cfgrid - if you want it to look different, you
have to
define your own style for it to change the default styles.
as for the date: the grid displays the date as your query
returns it -
if you want to show the date in a specific format, then make
sure your
query returns it in that format. super easy with sql date
functions.
many of the new cf ajax features are still lacking in one way
or the
other, no doubt. there are still bugs. it is up t you to
decide if you
want to use the new features or not. you can always use the
libraries
those features are based on instead - still does not mean
they will do
exactly what you ant the way you want, because they are, just
the same,
based on certain 'defaults' and, just the same, they have
bugs as well.
you should have tested the functionality of the new features
to make
sure it is acceptable for the project at hand, before giving
the client
any timeframes, especially since, obviously, you have not
worked with
them before. clearly some wrong assumptions on your part.
again, i do not mean to sound rude at all.
