Read the CFDJ article. I don't think Patrick has been
following the recent developments with Fusebox. Many
of the areas he says it does not support are now
supported. AND, I just went to the iiframework site in
Netscape 4 and it doesn't show up. I am interested to
read more about it, but I guess I have to use IE...
The article really did read more like an ad than a
scientific comparasion. Shame on the CFDJ.
