HomeSite and Studio are essentially the same and when I was teaching, I often recommended that students on a budget could get HomeSite instead of Studio. All of the CF tags are available in HS, you just need to customize your toolbars. Also, with HS you don't get the development server, the CF-specific handbooks and help files (both in print and online). Probably the biggest difference, and most important from a coding standpoint, is you can't connect to a database from within HS (at least, I can't see a way to do it). H.
