Yes CFM files are coldFusion scripts or (templates). &nbsp;COldFusion is a server engine that resolves tag names (kinda like regular HTML tags but only CF tags. &nbsp;There are many predefined CFtags built into the CF server engine. &nbsp;Along with all your normal functions such as string munipulation and date/time functions.<br />
<br />
Some people like ASP over CF but after using CF for many years I find that it's easier to write common functions and ODBC connections than in ASP.<br />
<br />
ASP works ok but often takes a lot longer to code even the simplest of things.<br />
<br />
Just my opinion.<br />

CF isn't really a programming language like VBSCRIPT. &nbsp;If you get into to CF you'll find that it's really just a matter of using CF &lt;tag&gt; names and specifying proper attributes kinda like just using HTML tags. &nbsp;It's pretty simple to use for the most part except when you get into more advanced levels dealing with COM Objects and XML parsing and stuff like that.<br />
<br />
Glad I could shed a little light on the subject for ya.<br />

What is ColdFusion?

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

Web development software is used to create websites for both the Internet and intranets. Software can be either locally installed or operated through a cloud interface, and ranges in complexity from simple text editors to full-fledged integrated development environments (IDEs) that include graphics, video, audio, scripting and database support.
