My Favorite ColdFusion Tags
I was just doing a little coding and thought I would post on a few of my favorite ColdFusion tags. I know what you're saying, how can you just have a few, they're all great! Yes, I know this!
1. cfcomponent - The mother of all ColdFusion tags!
2. cfdump - Very helpful in debugging.
3. cfswitch - Fastest way to switch on a value.
4. cftry/cfcatch - Best way to suppress and deal with errors.
5. cfquery - Most likely the widest used tag in my arsenal.
6. cfqueryparam - One of the best methods to force validation and stop hack attempts.
7. cfsilent - One of the ways to cut whitespace from your resulting ColdFusion pages.
8. cfsavecontent - A nice little nugget to know when you need to save and reuse a block of whatever.
9. cfoutput - Obviously can't forget about this baby, again, useful all over the place.
10. cfloop - Used in conjunction with the former tag anf with lists mainly.

12. FindNoCase()
cfswitch has got to be a hall-of-famer for sure. We need to introduce a new function called cfapok() which instantly makes everything cooler.
