Dreamweaver MX is the first new version of Dreamweaver since Allaire (the software company that developed ColdFusion) merged with Macromedia. As a result, Dreamweaver incorporates some of the features of Allaire's ColdFusion Studio and has powerful support for ColdFusion. Of all the server-side technologies supported by Dreamweaver, there is no doubt that ColdFusion is most strongly represented.
This chapter assumes that you are familiar with ColdFusion already. The purpose here is not to teach you how to code ColdFusion pages, but how to use Dreamweaver to produce CF pages and code CFML. Nevertheless, if you have never used ColdFusion before, there should be enough here to whet your appetite and get you started exploring this simple, but powerful, server technology.
