Macromedia Coldfusion MX Training - Client-Site

Getting the Right Knowledge to the Right People at the Right Time. Anywhere. With Client Site Training, courses can be scheduled on a date that is convenient for you, and because they can be scheduled at your location, you don't incur travel costs and students won't be away from home. An additional advantage is that the class is taught on your equipment, so students are learning in their work environment rather than in a classroom setup.

Prerequisite:

To gain the most from the class, you should already have: A familiarity with Web terminology An understanding of Web server characteristics Experience with the HTML tag set and syntax Familiarity with the SQL command set, including SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE Advanced Coldfusion MX: Completion of the Fast Track to ColdFusion MX course, or other equivalent experience building ColdFusion applications Experience developing web applications using ColdFusion for at least three months upon completion of the Fast Track to ColdFusion MX course Practical experience using CFML tags, functions, and variables Practical experience with the SQL command set, including Select, Insert, and Update

Objectives:

Upon completion of this course, you should be able to: FastTrack Coldfusion MX: Set up and manage the ColdFusion MX development environment Use ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML) Connect to a database Build queries that retrieve, insert, and update data dynamically Perform client-side and server-side validation Authenticate users and secure access to pages Use local, query, form, and URL variables Re-use code Incorporate custom tags, user defined functions, and ColdFusion components into your application Create a search form Build a data drill-down interface Develop fully interactive, database-driven web applications Advanced Coldfusion MX: Understand, create, and manipulate complex data in queries, arrays, and structures Persist data across pages in the application, session, and client scopes Create user-defined functions to encapsulate commonly used functionality Build an application with the business logic and database access encapsulated in reusable ColdFusion components Understand how to reuse code in custom tags Graph data with ColdFusion Build structured exception handling within an application Index and search both documents and record sets using the Verity search engine Exchange data across the Internet using WDDX, XML, and web services
