    Hello,

    Are you sure ColdFusion is really what you need? I mean it's rather expensive and not... really widespread. I think for newbies PHP would be better.

    There are 2 free opensource CFML engine. Coldfusion is very widespread especially in the enterprise market and its user base is growing especially with the new up comming release of CF9. The 2 open source engines are also attracting new developers.

    Even so Coldfusion standard is about $1000 thats about 10 hours worth of pay for a decent developer and the time you will save per project is far far more then that so it pays for itself in about 1-2 weeks.

    Agree, Ben Book is awesome for learning CF... Make sure you pick up CF8 copy. And download the dev cf8 from adobe and install it on your home dev box.

    ColdFusion = Awesomness

    I really love using coldfusion I use it everyday just about. Most of my work is done with coldfusion. A lot of people don't like it because it cost a lot, but in reality you can find CF hosting for as cheap as regular hosting. It speeds up work process and has a lot of nifty features.
