Same answer: "it depends". In this case it depends on the dev team and their experience, whether you need a 100% separate between UI and application (for multiple UIs) or if a little (or a lot) fudging is ok, etc. There is rarely a simple answer.
If you pick one framework and always use it, you'd doing yourself a great service. If you want to go the next step and be familiar with several and pick the best one for each project, that's even better. But don't try the latter without a legitimate investigation of the pros and cons of each framework, including building at least one complete app with each on you're considering. Personally, I'd go with Fusebox 3 and a CFC backend with 100% separation between UI and application, because that's what I'm most familiar with, and I rarely run into problems that don't have a ready solution. Of course, it might take all of 20 seconds to learn a little bit more about the app in question and realize that's a bad choice, so it's really up in the air. cheers, barneyb On 8/11/05, Z H <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Which method do you recommend for developing a large-scale website/portal? > > MG > -- Barney Boisvert [EMAIL PROTECTED] 360.319.6145 http://www.barneyb.com/ Got Gmail?
