>Is there anything that COLD FUSION can do that ASP can't do?

I don't know ASP that well; does it have counterparts to:

  * client variables - with built-in support for database storage
  * caching - cfcache, as well as CF_cacheThis functionality by Xing Li
  * support for locking - the new CF Admin settings to check locking in 4.5
  * debugging facilities - to test page time, check queries, log slow
pages, etc.
  * regular expression support - reFind, reReplace, etc.
  * error handling - through cfTry/cfCatch, and through cferror
  * the custom tag mechanism

For this last point, I know that you can define write functions within your
ASP scripts, but I don't know how to perform manipulations like setting
thisTag.generatedContent, or how to use something like <cfexit> to abort
custom tag execution, or if there is a counterpart to GetBaseTagList()
which allows you to see the calling stack.
