Yeah, I agree. I'm so sick of the divisions. Mac vs PC, Microsoft vs The Word, Java vs .NET, my programming language can beat up your programming language.
I say: The right tool for the right job. I don't consider myself a Cfer, .NETer, ASPer, Microsft or Java bigot. I'm just a programmer and I'll use what I'm able to. Except for netscape browsers--those suck ass. :) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bryan Stevenson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2003 4:03 PM Subject: Re: FBX3 AND CFMX > Fregas said: > "One thing that fusebox did that has nothing to do with any particular > methodology is it taught me how to best structure a web application.
