Becky,

As the author of qForms I can tell you it integrates *extremely* well
w/ColdFusion. As a matter of fact, many of the features of the API
derived as a way of making it easier to develop complex applications
w/server-side technologies--and most specifically, ColdFusion.

I would recommend playing around with the API and getting used to it
before doing a 4-related select box--especially if you're not very
familiar w/JS. I only say this, because I find that the most common
mistake people make the first time they try to use the API, is they try
to add as much stuff as possible, without really understanding what
they're adding. This makes it very hard to troubleshooting where the
problem lies.

Doing the related select boxes w/qForms is actually pretty easy--the
hard part designing the data structure. I'd recommend just playing
around with creating a simple 2-related select box at first and really
reading the documentation on the populate() method--which is the real
key to the whole thing.
