This title is out of date, and has been replaced by Adobe ColdFusion 9 Web Application Construction Kit, Volume 3: Advanced Application Development.

This is the revised award-winning sequel to my ColdFusion Web Application Construction Kit.
Co-authored by some of the most respected ColdFusion programmers, all of whom have gained their real-world ColdFusion experience the hard way, this book is the only place you’ll find extensive coverage of advanced ColdFusion application development, including all the new ColdFusion MX features.
Here’s a partial list of what you’ll find in this new book: writing scalable applications, implementing fault-tolerance and load-balancing technologies, monitoring and fine-tuning system performance, creating secure applications, deploying server sandbox security, integration with NOS security, writing language extensions in Java, CFML, and C/C++, COM, and CORBA integration, XML use, working with Web Services, structured error handling, implementing distributed processing and intelligent agents, scripting and customizing the Dreamweaver MX development environment, sophisticated regular-expressions processing, internationalization and localization, and much much more!
I hope you find this new book to be a valuable ColdFusion resource. And if you are new to ColdFusion, or are looking for a general ColdFusion tutorial or reference book, be sure to check out my other ColdFusion book, ColdFusion MX Web Application Construction Kit, ISBN 0321125169.
On behalf of myself, the contributing authors, and the publisher, good luck with ColdFusion, and happy coding!
