Customer Reviews & Comments
If you are using this book as a reference for Cold Fusion tags and examples, this may NOT be the book for you. Some basic tags are missing from the appendix, while more importantly there are significant mislabeling that make understanding the book difficult. An example is with <CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD">. The attributes are all mislabeled making understanding the examples difficult. Unfortunately this isn't an isolated case. The examples presented are mainly in the context of an online store. It is up to you to interpret how do use them for your own uses. I think more generalized examples would be helpful. In summary, the book is fairly informative but confusing enough to leave you frustrated.
