The one thing I like about PHP is the ability to write real functions. There
are a lot of similarities between CF and PHP of course. Here are things I've
noticed:
- Handling DB operations is much cleaner in CF than in PHP
- PHP doesn't write a ton of blank data to your HTML file
- PHP is more cost effective than ColdFusion
- The only editor I have found for PHP so far is UltraEdit. Then again,
with as
many problems as I have had with Studio on some of my PC's, this may be a
push.
- PHP4 now has session management and the ability to use Java.
That's just a very quick summary. If you have any specific questions, feel
free to email me off list.

Subject: cf vs php
I've seen a lot of "cf vs asp" stuff floating around, but I was wondering if
anybody had seen anything about cf vs php. It seems like it would be good
scripting language to pick up only because everything you need to run a php
application is free excluding the minimal amount of hardware you would need.
It appears to resemble coldfusion more than asp does so I'm wondering if
anybody has had any experience with comparing the two.
