Hello,
I'm taking the steps to learn about CF, and I am watching some tutorials to do so.
Unfortunately my files seem to not be working.
I have 2 files: HelloWorld.cfm and HelloWorld2.cfm that are not working correctly in the browser.
They both show the initial data that had been entered:
<body>
<h1>My First ColdFusion Page</h1>
<cfset firstname="David">
<cfoutput>My name is #firstname# !! </cfoutput>
</body>
But no matter what I do to change the data in the .cfm file - it will display as the original 'My name is David !!'
if i change the value of 'firstname' - it wont matter.
I've tried refreshing the browser, opening the files up in multiple text editors and making edits, and even opened the files up in a fresh browser [I hadnt used safari yet].
Nothing works.
If I create a new .cfm file - everything works fine...
Any ideas?
[localhost setup with XAMPP, Coldfusion 8 Installed, and originally using Eclipse w/ CFEclipse, also tried Textmate]
