I don't believe that /> is needed anymore. You can just use >

I unfortunately work with coldfusion/cmfl on a daily basis at my company. I am moving the servers over to Lucee from Coldfusion 10 and trying to have any new systems built on C#/.net. The most difficult part is getting other people on board. My manager is fine with what I am doing. He saids he is too old to learn a new language so myself and the other programmer will have to support anything I built in .net

Let me tell you folks. Writing spaghetti code with no separation of concerns and no version control is not exclusive to php

Yowza. If I can give you some unsolicited advice: get some kind of version control in place! Even if it's just a local git repo at first.

There were two things that made working in ColdFusion almost tolerable. (1) The place I worked started using an MVC framework before I left. I was pleasantly surprised by how much it improved the experience. (2) Transitioning to CFScript instead of CFML tags made a big difference as well.

But at the end of the day, it's still ColdFusion, and it drove me bonkers.
