Hi!

I was just wondering in someone could please recommend a book on ColdFusion for a complete novice. I have reasonable experience with html and some experience with xml.

At present I'm simply maintaining a website for the school in which I teach and am completely bored with the static non-interactive nature of it.

Would greatly appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Ben Forta's Web Application Construction Kit. One of my favorites that got me started years ago.

Great suggestion pyscho. I also would recommend anything by O'reilly.

I agree! That series is an invaluable tool if you are going to do any development in ColdFusion. It has bailed me out a number of times.
