ajaxCFC: small update for DevNet users
I just uploaded a small patch for ajaxCFC so it works with ColdFusion MX7 DevNet edition. As you probably know, DevNet adds a little annoying meta tag so you can't use it for production, but it also prevents you from generating anything other than html with ColdFusion, which is really lame.
Anyways, special thanks to Harry Klein for sending this fix. The callback handler has a regEx now that will check for that metatag and remove it prior to processing the response.

My interpertation is that once Devnet expires you can no longer use the server-side software. Server side software includes ColdFusion.
My understanding was that the Devnet subscriptions stopped being sold at the end of 2004. Since Devnet was a year long subscription process, I would think that there are no active subscriptions left.
As such, I have mixed feelings about modifying code to get around idiosyncrasies of a software whose use is a no longer prohibited.
I'm not trying to argue here, but I have to disagree with you. When DEVNET was cancelled Macromedia gave all of us ample time to download everything from DEVNET for our own personal use, which was mentioned in the countless e-mails (almost qualified as spam :P). I disagree wholeheartedly with the statement above in that Macromedia terminated our agreements, not the other way around. I believe Macromedia understodd this and made it evidently clear as well [and fairly compensated us by granting us enough time to download everything].
Thank you for this adjustment Rob. Very much needed. :D
