CF isn't a new way or concept of developing applications. Not like the encapsulation and inheritance properties of OO. For me the most recent "new step" was Java and the way the code is executed by JVM's across multi providers. the other was the introduction of OLEDB as a datasource connectivity layer

What about COLDFUSION being one, surely its a step in the direction of black box programming, If a tagged language could replace Javascript would it be an innovation? For beginners of JavaScript yes, because once they tackled a traditional programming language after learning it, they would see the leaps.

Yes it is, but I really don't think that it has changed programming. -- Jeffry Houser | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Need a Web Developer? Contact me!
