The specific example one of the PHP guys gave was extracting the URL vars
from a multiple select form. As the URL search string would read:
attribute=1&attribute=2&attribute=3
He was saying he would need to set up a loop because @GET["attribute"] would
just return the last value - "3".
Whereas CF must automatically parse this as URL.attribute would be a list of
{1,2,3}
This just struck me as this is just another area where CF puts { ASP | .Net
| PHP } in the shade.

$_GET["urlVar"]
(and form variables are $_POST["formVar"])
CF scores on a lot of the high-level stuff like query handling and the
protocol tags. The XML processing is also way simpler.
