I love how date/time stuff usually turns out to be simpler than you think. Three cheers for date/time functions :)

Hi Experts,<br />
I know this must sound simple - but these are the ones I get hung up on.<br />
<br />
I have a program where I want to see if the current time is after 6 am (or inversely between 12 midnight and 5:59.9999 am of the current day.<br />
<br />
Do you use Datediff?, Datecompare?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance,<br />

Comparing the Time in ColdFusion

ColdFusion is a server-side rapid application development platform originally created by Allaire and now sold by Adobe, implementing the dynamic general purpose CFML programming language. The term ColdFusion is sometimes colloquially used to refer to the CFML language (Cold Fusion Markup Language), but can also include discussions of the server software implementation. ColdFusion runs using a customised version of Apache Tomcat. Earlier versions are bundled with JRun.
