Not really....it all depends on which courier you want to use...from theer I'd Google something like "FedEx ColdFusion tag" and then start reading ;-)
Essentially you use the tags to: -pass shipping details to the courier's system -a record is created in their system -their system passes back informatin regarding the shipment (including package tracking number) and for the shipping label -a shipping label is created in PDF/JPG form -you print the label, stick it on the package, ship it Hope that helps Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
