Customer Reviews & Comments
There are so many typos and incorrect references in this book that it needs a good proofreading. The basic information and presentation were good; however, for beginners the incomplete references and/or the inconsistencies make it difficult for a reader new to ColdFusion to grasp the concepts. I had some of my "Introduction to ColdFusion" class members scan the book and they suggested that it not be used until the errors were corrected. With that said, I found the format and sequence of information well done. A person familiar with programming that wants an introduction to Coldfusion would find what they want here. Clean it up and I would give this book a higher rating.
