Application Servers for Enhanced HTML
(a.k.a., Page-Based Application Servers)
ExamplesMacromedia ColdFusion 5.0 – MX 6.1 ServerMicrosoft IIS with ASPWithEnterprise Pty Ltd Tango 2000/WiTango
http://www.witango.com
etc.
Typically less expensive than Servers for standalone use, and servers with IDEsTechnology stays within the familiar HTML confines

System Differentiators
Visual InterDev (ASP)Management of site development processScriptingMacromedia’s Drumbeat or NetObjects’ Fusion can be used as alternative IDEs
ColdFusion Studio 4.5 – MX 2004HTML codingBasic database integrationUltraDev 4 or Fusion can be used as alternative IDE (4.5)Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, FreeHand (MX 2004)

Technology
IDE + Application ServerIDE
Creates pages with mixture of HTML and proprietary tags or script codeVisual page creation (textual creation possible as well)
Application ServerEvaluates the code upon user requests and provides HTML pages
8
Tagging v.s. Scripting
ColdFusionEasy tag-oriented dynamic pages for simple tasksScript use when more complex coding is required
arrays, case & switch statements, and error handlingExample
Simple phone directory application: 2 custom tags + 1 SQL statementSame would take 100 lines of ASP code ...

ColdFusion Studio
Supports other languages than HTMLHandled Device Markup LanguageSynchronized Multimedia Integration Language
Visual Tool Markup LanguageSupport the inclusion of tag editing dialogsSupport the addition of XML capabilities
CSS integration is clumsy (separate editor)Link management utility limited to page by page (no site diagramming)

PHP Examples
Showing variables<?php echo $HTTP_USER_AGENT; ?>
Getting a list of web server variables<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Checking for Internet Explorer<?phpif(strstr($HTTP_USER_AGENT,"MSIE")) {echo "You are using Internet Explorer<br>";}
?>
36
PHP Examples(continued)
Jumping in and out of PHP mode<?phpif(strstr($HTTP_USER_AGENT,"MSIE")) {?><center><b>You are using Internet Explorer</b></center><?} else {?><center><b>You are not using Internet Explorer</b></center><?}?>

PHP Examples(continued)
Flexible HTML Forms HandlingTypical HTML form:
<form action="action.php" method="post">Your name: <input type="text" name="name">You age: <input type="text" name="age"><input type="submit"></form>
Action.php is as follows:
Hi <?php echo $name; ?>.You are <?php echo $age; ?> years old.
