I'd say Google is your friend. Be warned that You may have a hard time finding good tutorials. Cold Fusion is still moderately popular, but it's proprietary, doesn't have the mareting force of someone like Microsoft or Sun, and not cost-free either, so it doesn't generate he same enthusiasm a lot of other environments do. |

although i'd prefer coldfusion to php or perl.. only cuz it's such a nice language.. specially for web development.. and it integrates well with the J2EE and .NET frameworks (as well as a few other legacy ones) |

Perhaps, but Perl has really nice support for everything except the J2EE integration. The key factor for Cold Fusion is that it's not open source, and it doesn't have a big marketing machine (like ASP.NET). A lot of the people who would otherwise snap it up are worried about that, since it leaves them out in the cold if the manufacturer ever stops supporting it. |

yea thats true. someone should work on an opensource alternate to ColdFusion with support for integration with most of the major enterprise frameworks. that language (or development environment as a whole) would be a hit. And might even have better support from the corporate world. Keeping a syntax similar to ColdFusion would provide the same ease of programming to the developers. |
