Hi, I'm using ColdFusion's reReplace() function for regular expression pattern replacement. I'd like to use a function call for the replacement string, and pass a matched backreference to it.

Because of some restrictions on the web server, I need the proxy to be written in ColdFusion. The URI that needs to be proxied is dynamic, but a set URI is good for now. I've never written a single line in ColdFusi...
The problem i've encountered is attempting to select rows from a database where 2 columns in that row align to specific pairs of data. IE selecting rows from data where id = 1 AND type = 'news'. Obviously, if it was 1 simple pair it would be easy, but the issue is we are selecting rows based on 100s of pair of data. I feel as if there mu...
