Hi

I am fairly new to coldfusion . I have a questtion about Java intergration
with coldfusion . I am developing a web system where I like to use java and
coldfusion . Can I use Java code inside the coldfusion instead of any scrpting
language ( Java Script or VB Script ) . In order to use java with cold fusion
do I have to install the java on the web server or on the workstation ( we have
web server with IIS 6.0 ) and we use windows 2000 . Also please let me know if
I can use Dreamweaver to write the code .

Thank you

I'm not experienced with Java, but I can hopefully answer a couple of your
questions. When most people talk about using Java with ColdFusion, it is
typically meant that the Java is server-side (just like ColdFusion code). Java
Applets are client-side, just like JavaScript and VBScript. If you are using
client-side Java (i.e., applets), you will have to have Java installed on the
client. ColdFusion has its own JRE (Java Runtime Environment), so I don't
think you will need to install Java on the ColdFusion server. Java code is
just plain text, so any text editor (including Dreamweaver) can be used to edit
the code.
