Thanks for your reply. I see many people using JSP all the time, and I wonder what the big deal is. I say to myself if they just knew what CFML could do to their development. But these people are die-hard scripters and they stick to JSP. Other than J2EE, does JSP have anything over CFML? I know all of the selling points for CFML, what are they for JSP, leaving out J2EE?

In that case, I'd go with CFMX in a heartbeat. I haven't benched the speed differences between JSP and CFMX 6.1 for simliar pieces of work (I have more important things to do, like playing Knights of the Old Republic), but MX is far, far easier to work with and has a much cleaner development process. Even if you're familiar with Java, it makes writing HTML/XML/whatever much easier to follow and read if you're using CFML. You can clean up a lot of JSP's syntax by using taglibs to encapsulate bits of functionality, but you can also import those taglibs into MX and use them in exactly the same way. A previous job I had used JSP across almost all of our website, which was nice and fast, but since our programming and designing wings of the web team were separate, the designers had daily questions about how to push their layouts into JSP, since they had no programming background. Some of this was ameliorated by taglibs, but looking back, it's the perfect solution for CFMX. I hope that helps answer your question, Bryan. - Jim ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=i:4:137608 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
