In my opinion, unless I'm missing something, that code sample is completely
screwed up. The primary use of CFTRANSACTION is to treat multiple queries as
a single operation within the database. In the code sample, if the first
query succeeds, it'll be committed, and if the second one succeeds, it'll be
committed separately. In that case, you might as well do away with the
CFTRANSACTION entirely, and simply wrap each query in a separate
CFTRY/CFCATCH block:
<cftry>
<cfquery name="makeNewCourse" ...>
...
</cfquery>
<cfcatch type="database">
<!--- do nothing and let the page continue processing --->
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
<cftry>
<cfquery name="insertNewCourseToList" ...>
...
</cfquery>
<cfcatch type="database">
<!--- do nothing and let the page continue processing --->
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
