> True--some frameworks just support it (or "force you to do > it" if you're taking the negative side) better than others. I dunno... I have ... mixed feelings about this statement. I used to agree with it completely, but these days I'm not so sure. Granted, that may have a lot to do with the frameworks I've been looking at -- onTap, Fusebox and Mach-II all do a pretty good job of supporting the idea of MVC, and I haven't really had a serious look at any other frameworks -- what other frameworks may exist -- I know there are a few others, like cfObjects and SmartObjects but most of them don't seem to be doing real well in the advertizing department. If you do a google search for "coldfusion framework" for instance, onTap, Fusebox and Mach-II show up pretty well in the ranking, but beyond that there's a lot of articles and sites that aren't really related to the "one-off" frameworks. They end up being largely pages that just coincidentally have the word framework on them somewhere, like "Macromedia ColdFusion - Security Framework Overview" (using the word to refer to parts of the CF API like <cflogin>) ... So maybe my opinion that all frameworks seem to be relatively neutral toward MVC has a lot more to do with the frameworks I've seen. I'll probably comment on this stuff a bit more later on, right now I'm headed to pick up my car from the shop. :) Turns out it was a computerized electrical component that had gone bad. So now that they've released version 2.0 of the starter motor drivers and replaced some of the hardware I should be set. ;P s. isaac dealey 214-823-9345 team macromedia volunteer http://www.macromedia.com/go/team chief architect, tapestry cms http://products.turnkey.to onTap is open source http://www.turnkey.to/ontap ----------------------------------------------- To post, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: Send UNSUBSCRIBE to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe / unsubscribe: http://www.dfwcfug.org
