I might also add that a site that provides on-line banking has a variety of needs and functions
There are information only pages, some of which change often. There are forms, both secure and nonsecure There are worksheets/interactive apps/training. There are flashy ads and offers There are pages that display secure banking information There are pages that interact and change secure banking information There are pages that combine data from multiple incompatible back-end systems. There are user customization and preference settings Not all of these need to be handled using the same server technologies. Jerry Johnson >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/31/03 11:50AM >>> Tim, Bill is on the money on his comments. On-line banking requires heavy iron, heavy security, lot of customization and must be fast and easy to use at the same time. There will be folks on the list that say ETradeBank uses CF -- however they use CF to connect directly to java servlets. Bill is also right when he's pointing you to more java (and .net) based solutions (Keep in mind, I'm not saying CF could not do the job-- just that security concerns will demand this product to be more robust and complex than most web applications out there-- and requiring a more customized solution!). Even on the finantial solution products I have been involved in -- there has been heavy customization, even on the off-the-shelf products.
