Hello Experts! I have tried to convert my Application.cfm to Application.cfc twice over the past few months but so many errors were generated and I was so busy building the rest of the site and teaching myself ColdFusion that I quickly reverted back to the cfm. I have had various session problems and different session behaviors between browsers. Also, I read that CF prefers a cfc so I'm hoping that converting will help clear up some of the last few issues. The next post will be my Application.cfm. Thanks in advance, Andy

Converting Application.cfm to Application.cfc

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 applications are systems that run in browsers that perform functions normally associated with other client-based programs. One of the most commonly used web applications is email; instead of downloading individual emails to a local machine, the data is shown through a website. Other examples of web applications are collaborative systems like a wiki or an online game.

Web Applications

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
