form items (or whatever) with the server without submitting a page. There
are many options, libraries and techniques to do this so you have more
choice when not forced to use only the canned one.
Macromedia is, indeed, focusing on Flash - why wouldn't they? However they
see CF as integral to the success of Flash of as an application platform.
You CAN produce Rich Internet Applications with any tool, but you can
produce them faster and easier with CF and Flash.

Subject: RE: ColdFusion VS ASP side point.
This was a extra argument provided outside of the original comparison
document.
Another reason Wyndgate said they are going to use .NET is that it is not
necessary to wait for a web page to be submitted before getting feedback on
the entry to a data field. With .NET the validity of the entry can be
checked without submitting a web page to the browser. This was their main
point on why they were going with .NET. The other point was that they felt
the Cold Fusion technology was not the focus of Macromedia, the flashy parts
of web programming were their primary focus.
To those who have waded through all of this, thank you a third time.
