Actually cfabort was introduced as a debugging tag.
Really?
Note that I use CFABORT because I was not sure CFCONTENT will cause processing
to stop.
It is not specified in the docs, but it does, so I could remove the CFABORT tag

There is still a good reason for CFABORT: stop

Hey Rick,
AIR apps can be converted to run on iOS. I'm pretty sure that is using
a tool in CS 5. Apple tried to kill that, but eventually allowed for
converted code instead of natively written Ojective C.
They can also be exported to run on Android (which is why we are using
it).

I don't see how that makes any difference. When you write CF and HTML
