What Students Say...

"I wrote you kudos right after the class, but thought you might be interested in hearing from me after a month back at work. I'm finding that so much of what I learned keeps coming back to me in different situations. You helped me see that programming is about making good architecture decisions, not just slamming out code. That is invaluable. Thank you." - Cary L.

"I got so much more out of this class than I expected. By day 3, I thought my head would split Those lunch breaks saved me! I've never been so excited by a class and so ready to apply it at my work." - Charles K

"It was a WONDERFUL class, Hal took time to help everyone and worked to everyones level -- more advanced for the uppers and slower for the lowers. It was an excellent learning time." - Bill W

Welcome to the independent information resource for ColdFusion developers.

I spoke with some Fuseboxers at the recent conference and they told me they needed help explaining the benefits of my FLiP methodology to their managers. I wrote a brief explanation titled "FLiP: A Manager's Guide" that's available here.

Also, I'm holding my first ever "Project Success: Working with FLiP" class in Tampa on January 15-16. This is worth taking your manager to. Info here.

I'm often asked, "Do you provide onsite training?" I certainly do. I offer classes in Java for ColdFusion Programmers, Fusebox 4, Mach-II OO framework, and ColdFusion MX Foundations. Later this year, I'll be offering a "Building J2EE Web Applications" that will focus on Java beans, servlets, and Java Server Pages (JSP)s. If you're interested in having me come to you to teach a class, please send me an email.

Is ColdFusion Dying? That's the provocative title of a newsletter I wrote (if you're not an "Occasional Newsletter" subscriber and would like to be, click here). Rather than take a pro -- or con -- position, I argue that the question deserves a deeper answer. You can read it here.

I have an article on Using Inheritance and Composition with CFCs at Macromedia's Designer/Developer site. Click here to read it.
