Right, but my point is that overall they're just not all that different. You can also use Java for your model if you really want to, rather than CF, in which case it'll work the same way as the Microsoft MVC design framework. > Have to know the limitations of your tools. Sure, there will always be occasional edge cases where one environment does something significantly better than another. But for the average web application, this doesn't come into play.
