Not really. The irrelevant part is that the ColdFusion app server doesn't
care, as far as I am aware, who _issued_ the request. And, if you didn't
code any browser specific ColdFusion tags (ie a cfif browserversion = internet
explorer or whatever)", then the HTML that ColdFusion returns will be
given to the browser, regardless of what browser it is.
However, each browser version, on each platform, tends to have its own
ideosyncracies in how it interpretes HTML and the various add ons (JavaScript,
Java, etc.). Thus, if you were to take the HTML that you get at your site
on one of the working machines, write it to a file, then use the various
browsers to access the static page, you should see the same pattern of
mis-behavior as you see when the various machines access the dynamic pages
via the coldfusion server.
ColdFusion doesn't in general ensure that HTML generated is cross platform.
That takes careful programming.
