I think you are confusing the fact that CFMX, when it reverts to 
developer mode, is limited to requests from localhost and 1 additional 
IP address.

The number of browser, and browser windows on both ( and the number of 
CFMX apps they can be invoking) is essentially unlimited.

  While writing some articles about CFMX, using the Default server, I 
would have browser windows open to 5 or 6 applications  I wrote,  the 
administrator, example programs,  CFMX Docs, and Petmarket Blueprint.

No Problem other than a cluttered screen

I am saving versions of programs into wwwroot, then executing them.

For example, to validqate the article, I copy/paste a CFMX program from 
the article int o my editor, save to wwwroot, then run the program in 
the browser. -- One program primes a PostgreSQL database, the next does 
a query against the primed db,  Then I repeat the process foe MySQL, 
SyBase, Oracle, etc.

I am limited only by my typing ability, not by CFMX Developer or the 
default server.
