I have to learn syntax and grammar, a few quirky rules and then then rest is using the manual as a reference... why? Cause when you've started on your 28th computer language you realise you can do it without frying your brain each time.
This brings into focus how important design and structure is because it must survive where languages typically don't (or at least they evolve to be significantly different). - Peter -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 February 2004 11:41 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] Coldfusion Developer agreed. most of us are using at least CF, HTML, Javascript on a daily basis, and probably a few others too. It'd be difficult to memorise most of the tags/attributes/functions etc of everything you work with, simply because of the sheer volume. that's what the reference books and cfdocs are for.

Me neither. My portfolio speaks for itself. Well, it hopefully will do! Thing is, most people are using studio/DWMX right? What's the point in memorising the attribute of every single tag when you have easily to hand helpfiles? As it happens, I know most of them, but that's just through usage over the years, certainly not because I sat there with the wall chart memorising them. I don't *need* to know the attributes for CFFORM, because I never use it in everyday work.
