At first, I picked ColdBox because it had excellent documentation. But, I quickly got lost anyway. Then, I looked at CFWheels, and it was perfect for me. Easy enough to get going quickly, and with a lot of great help via the Google Group list. Plus, since Wheels adapts and extends Rails for ColdFusion, I've found that I can often get great ideas for solving a CFWheels problem by Googling for the equivalent Rails solution! I used the Head First Rails book to learn CFWheels, and blogged about it some: http://www.resultantsys.com/index.php/category/cfwheels @Martin, in mid-2009, I decided I wanted to learn Coldfusion MVC and OOP magic!

They downloaded the pdf files. @John Give it a go - it's cracking @Mike

it’s not even all the documentation – just the api documents. They downloaded the pdf files.

Where I do have a problem is where people feel they know better and try to tell me how I will live my life and take away my personal freedom. The science behind global warming is unsettled and despite supporters trying to supress debate there's a good deal of information pro and con. To me adopting a green lifestyle makes sense even if you don't believe in global warming. I will pay a premium for green but one with limits. The green's should imho focus on education and leading by example. They shouldn't try to do so by regulating peoples lives.

The others are <a href="http://www.coldbox.org" rel="nofollow">ColdBox </a>and <a href="http://fw1.riaforge.org/" rel="nofollow">FW1</a>. note: I haven't used FW1 yet; it just fitted with the configuration comment you gave. All three use convention over configuration so you should be fine with any of them. I like the Rails approach; so Wheels is nice for me. I'm impressed by ColdBox's documentation, it really does cover everything. FW1 is the most lightweight of the three. It's up to you.
