alright, so i'm going to be starting this internship in about a week (i guess), and i'm going to have to learn ColdFusion. i've checked out macromedia's website briefly, and i'll be going over some of the tutorial stuff, but i was wondering if anybody knew of any resources i should have for this...

thanks!

I've been developing with Cold Fusion for the past 2 years or so, in fact, it's the primary language used by the company I work for. We have a lot of books which can be helpful, particulary, anything written by Ben Forta is phenomenal. I had the opportunity to attend a Cold Fusion Users-Group seminar here a few months ago, hosted by Ben Forta himself. It was pitching the new "Cold Fusion MX" and what it has to offer. Forta's general knowledge and experience with programming really impressed me, and his commitment to transforming CF into a more robust language. (Back in the day (such as CF 3.0), CF was pretty much a joke)

Anyways, Forta's the man, and he writes some great references. Visit his web site (http://forta.com/) for more details.

More specifically - this book (http://forta.com/books/0789725851/) rocks my world.
