Not quite: CF Studio was indeed built from HomeSite, virtually identical except that it added various CFML-specific feature (and things like RDS support). Both product evolved together and could be bought separately, with Studio always about 3-times more expensive. When MM decided to create

Well, I'll just speak up for the other "dinosaurs" who haven't gotten into Eclipse. :-) I just find that various things I'm used to aren't there, and while I suppose they may be there if I poke around enough, the problem is typical of getting any developer to move from one editor to another.

Be careful: HomeSite does NOT equal HomeSite+. HS can be purchased, HS+ is bundled in DWMX/Studio MX. You're right, though, that there's little mention of that. And again, beyond hiding it on the site, it's not even in the installer. So many people have it and don't even know it.   /charlie

Well, again, I want to make the assertion that HomeSite+ is also "free"--if you already have a license for DWMX or Studio MX, of course. I know that may smack some as either disingenuous or a technicality, but I do mean it seriously. I know a lot of folks who don't like DWMX much and still ha
