Excellent Content in This Book
14. Juli 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
I really enjoyed reading most of this book. I say most, because I haven't gotten through it all - there's a lot of content here!
I was surprised by the range of material covered in one book. The CFC's section is excellent, AJAX, and such.
It looks like John Farrar spent quite a bit of time developing his content, and he delivers it in an easy-to-read fashion.
Thanks for a great ColdFusion book!

What is a good ColdFusion Book these days?
1. Mai 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
You know, I read books on ColdFusion all the time (I fly a lot) to stay up to par with things, but mostly to get different perspectives on how people see and use ColdFusion in their own lives. We all have our own perspective and uses; and I like to see how others use it and/or teach it.. (the teach it part intrigues me, because I teach it too.. so i do my best to learn from others and see what works and what doesn't so I can do it better myself).
Recently, I got my hands on a copy of John Farrar's [ColdFusion 8 Developer Tutorial] and I have to say.. I think it's clearly written...it covers a broad range of subjects, but I think what I like the most is that it goes above and beyond most books. He clearly focuses on the readers and does everything possible to get you to get it... (if that makes sense).
I am not one to recommend books, I think tutorials and "demonstrations" work better when it comes to learning things, but I think that this book can teach people quite a bit and really get them to understand and master the coding logic that is needed to become a good developer.
If you have yet to read this book, I suggest you pick up a copy.. It's not only worth the cash.. but will also be a good reference later on.. Lots of Ajax in there too.. which I haven't seen in many other books (other than WACK... but that is another story!).
Overall, I would give this book a 4.5 (out of 5 stars) because it delivers a good range of topics, clear communication, and most importantly it helps with next steps!
Great Job John!
Keep them coming!

Very poorly written and extremely disorganized
22. Mai 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
The author has a very clumsy writing style: indeed, it is difficult to believe that he is a native speaker of English. Even simple concepts are explained so badly that they are difficult to understand:
"You can nest structures inside the structures in addition to actual variable storage containers. It is the first step towards packaging your data inside the application."
He is trying to say that structures can contain other structures, and that this can help to organize data.
Here's another gem:
"Most of the failed web pages come when we start getting interactive."
He is explaining that people sometimes make mistakes when they program in ColdFusion.
Despite all this verbiage, when there is a need to explain something properly, he doesn't bother. For example, it is important to know when to use # in CF. His explanation is:
"This is required for functions to work properly."
Since # is not usually used inside functions - and the example he gives is actually a tag rather than a function - the reader isn't any the wiser.
Here's more:
"Computers see upper case letters differently from lower case letters. So THIS proved the point that strings are case sensitive."
[In English] The function find() searches for sub-strings and is case sensitive.
Note that he doesn't explain what the function find() actually does: indeed, at this point in the book (p.14) he hasn't even introduced functions.
I seriously doubt that anyone could learn anything useful from this book: it's truly dreadful. Even the cover picture makes no sense (cold fusion - i.e., fusion at low temperatures - is supposed to take place at room temperature. It doesn't need ice.) Buy Ben Forta's books, which are more coherent, more accurate and much better written. Or use the manuals which are free to download from Adobe.com.
Packt is a publisher to be avoided. I have read another one of their books - Object Oriented JavaScript - and that also had obviously not been properly proof-read.
