I had started off in training development after telling my grad
advisory committee to go f*ck themselves. Hypercard, toolbook and
Authorware. I started in HTML and was sent to a training course on
this new web software, Cold Fusion. I had not looked back since. Given
all the ups and downs with it, its still my first choice, in spite of
knowing asp (classic) php and java. What is simple and elegant in CF
in awkward and verbose in php. Whiel Java is very powerful, its far
too much of  havin gto do each and every little thing yourself. Given
the choice I'd stick with CF.
