5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Ben Forta Cold Fusion book, January 25, 2001

By	R. John Smith (Harlem, nyc) - See all my reviews

Ben Forta is a rare combination of a technology educator who combines a writing style that is easy for web beginners to understand with cutting edge content that will challenge technology experts. An important reason for the popularity of Cold Fusion as an easy to use web application development tool among web heads is the excellent book by Ben Forta 'Allaire Cold Fusion 4.0'. Ben Forta's latest work 'Sams Teach Yourself Cold Fusion Express' continues that excellent tradition and is highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great place to start with ColdFusion Express, March 16, 2001

By A Customer

This is a fantastic book! The first chapters' review of the client-server web dynamic is worth the price of admission alone. Excellently written!

This book takes you from the beginning step-by-step to explain some advanced application development. A perfect choice to jump into working with ColdFusion!!

An added benefit is having ColdFusion express on the CD-ROM, with helpful installation tips that will help you get ColdFusion up and running quickly!!!

Great work!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Beginners Book, May 4, 2001

By A Customer

I'm new to Cold Fusion and I spent a couple of hours at B&N yesturday evaluating all the books they had (the Dummies and Quick and Easy books specifically). Forta's book is hand's down the best of the bunch. I agree with the previous reviewer that there are some typos, but when you consider how easy he is to understand - especially compared to what else is out there - this is the book I bought.
