Now ColdFusion developers can get access to the same enterprise Ajax components that we’ve been providing to Java, PHP and ASP developers:)  Alexei’s been the driving force in getting our ColdFusion offering to market.  More here:

What we’ve done (to be specific) is provide a direct conversion of the server-side Nitobi XML API in the form of a basic CFTEMPLATE include. This provides a global set of functions for reading and writing to our XML schema. Since this is new territory for us, we wanted to try a very basic implementation of this API to guage response and collect feedback before producing a Coldfusion module or CFC. We’ll be releasing a CFC (Coldfusion Component) some time in late November or December pending feedback from customers.

If you’re looking for where to download our Coldfusion components go to

• Free trial downloads

Although it was technically possible for CF developers to use our Ajax Grid and ComboBox before, it was a lot harder. Now they can have the rich user interface up and running in their existing app much quick by building from a sample.

We have all the same demos as for other platforms that ship with with the free download.  We also have online demos you can kick the tires of immediately. 

• Ajax Grid Demos and Samples
  
• Ajax ComboBox Demos and Samples

The next thing we want to do in our never ending quest to make usable Ajax web apps easier to develop is provide a Dreamweaver plugin for Coldfusion and other developers.
