On a local development box, I see no reason to not use ColdFire. I have found no issues with it at all in the months I have been using it. You never have to worry about CF debugging messing with your design, that is the single biggest reason I use it. I like the variables tab to quickly dump out data if I need to debug.
In addition to that, I find Firebug to still be the best front-end debugger out there. The real-time HTML and CSS updates are invaluable for me for tweaking designs on the fly rather than having to edit, save, upload files again and again. The Net tab is great for managing AJAX calls. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:333550 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
