This review is from: Adobe ColdFusion 8 Web Application Construction Kit, Volume 3: Advanced Application Development (Paperback)

I got this book, along with Volume 1 and 2, and I will say that I was more than a little disappointed. The biggest issue that I have is that half the book is not included in the book. Basically, in the front of this volume, it says that chapters 41-54 are only on-line. For me, I like having the books for reference when I am not at my computer, so having those sections on-line only are more than a little annoying!

I also noticed more typo's in this volume than the other two. The actual content in the book is fairly helpful and have helped me out.
