Why does Colophon New Media program websites using ColdFusion vs. other server solutions?

There are a variety of programming languages availble to create dynamic websites. However, there are 2 main type of server-side scripting code: 1) Commercial 2) Open Source.

Open Source and PHP
The most popular open source solution for dynamic website development is PHP (Hypertext Processor).  PHP is an excellent language and is used to build powerful web applications. It is referred to as "Open Source" because it is considered to be a "free" software. The code that makes up the program is available to developers to freely access and change. There is a large network of developers sharing ideas and working to evolve and improve the program.
