>You use Cold Fusion regularly?

naaaa more like irreguarly. I maintain a shoe auction site at footwearbid.com that was built with an off-the-shelf cold fusion package.



>What do you think of it and have you tried missing FoxPro with Cold Fusion yet?

I like the development tools very much except for it's visual/gui web page designer sucks lemons compared to frontpage (and keep in mind, that aint saying much.) The scripting syntax is fairly clean and straight forward, but overall paradim is a bit of shift coming from this side of the fence (no control structures nor object models... just all tags. tags tags and more tags. tags get old... gimme a comprehensive language please before i go tag-endtag-crazy). Also easy to learn because there is typically only one way to do something.

and yes I played with fox and CF, no big deal really.... downside is you gotta go the route of ODBC instead of ADO. And as we all know, VFP6 ODBC leaves lots to be desired, namely lack of dbc support. Surprisingly, I ported the dbfs I was playing with to access2000 and tested that with same CF sample and response time was quicker, barely noticeable but still just a wee bit quicker. That depressed enough that I stopped playing and only do what i absolutely have to with the product here lately.
