Hi Dan,
Now i understood. In ColdFusion we have also some kind of html-generators to build tables, dropdowns, and other elements.
Nobody is using this, the generated code is not usable, it's crap.
If Ipswitch uses handcrafted html-code, it would be on the save side. If not, sayonara.
After the "no go for mac's" as Kevin told us, their using those objects. Oops, they have to rewrite the whole frontend, i guess.
I know, that the population of non-wintel computers is not big, but to ignore it, is false and is not super duper argument to push IMail 2006 and new subscriptions.
Like i sayed before, our customers are mostly ISP's and schools. They won't be very happy with this issue and some decisions will take place.

Caca.
.Net has objects (like buttons, grids, listboxes, etc.) you drag to the "page" in the IDE, and they render code. No HTML must be crafted (if you follow the tutorials - AND - you don't particularly want portable nor efficient code). .Net builds all the code for you, and it's very MicrosoftCentric code. If you code your own HTML, then the rules are the same as any other environment, Cold Fusion, Front Page, Dreamweaver, whatever.
It's the "party line" coding practices that build the junk web pages.

I am a CF exponent as well, and use it heavily for targeted e-mail distribution using I-Mail. Apart from ASP.net taking 5 times as long to code any application compared with CF, there should be no difference in the end result. Therefore ,net in general is a big kludge designed to capture the VB users and must have some other inefficiencies carefully crafted into it that I am unware of, if it is causing other users problems.

BTW I guess CF may soon become part of Adobe if they buy Macromedia. Should make for an interesting addition in the area of document security. ----- Original Message ----- From: Martin Schaible To: Darin Cox Sent: Sunday, November 06, 2005 9:34 AM Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] IMail 2006 WebMail w/o Mac Hi, So far i know, creating or generating good html/css/dhtml is not a matter of the middleware (e.g. .net, php, coldfusion) you use. I'm more related to coldfusion, an therefore not eperienced with any members of programming languages of .net. This might by the reason, for my silly question ;-) So, what is the problem with .net relating to the client's html/css/dhtml part of an application? ============================================ Am Sonntag, 6.
