2. Yes it does
3. Yes, it understands includes and does not allow you to make changes to the included file
4. It should be aware of the .css page.
I gave a short presentation on Contribute when it first came out here at the DFWCGUG, and these were things that I pointed out and were asked during the presentation. From my experience, Contribute and CF play very well together. I did have one issue for one of my clients that when they made changes to a page, and tried to view it, the page would not exist. He would have to roll back the changes and the page would work. I still have not figured out what the deal is on that one.

Subject: ColdFusion & Contribute - How well do they play together?
All:
I'm looking into the possibility of using Contribute for a client so they
could manage the contents of the site. I've gone through MM's Contribute
pages and have a good idea of what it is capable of but I couldn't really
find any solid information on how well Contribute and ColdFusion play
together.
According to the site, Contribute can be configured to not allow edits to
scripting code, including CFML, but what does that really mean.
Specifically:
1) Would a user be able to change the label if I have code like:
<CFOUTPUT QUERY="myQuery">
Label: #myQuery.Value#<BR>
</CFOUTPUT>
2) In the above example, does Contribute know that #myQuery.Value# is
considered scripting code?
3) Does Contribute understand CFINCLUDEs? That is, if I have code like
the following, can users edit the contents of the included file?
Some text<BR>
<CFINCLUDE TEMPLATE="moreText.cfm">
Even more text<BR>
4) If I use an include for display of a global header, including
specification of a CSS file, will Contribute know to grab the included
CSS file?
Thanks in advance for your help with this.
