    I started off with, and have been a big fan of, HomeSite. However, I do believe it belongs to the past.

    ColdFusion has moved on. New tags and functions have come in, and the language has changed drastically. Continuing to use HomeSite is like swimming upstream. With the currents getting faster by the day.

    If you want to safeguard your children's future you will have to move with the times. As Mike says, you should give CFBuilder a chance. An alternative, which is close in functionality to HomeSite, is CFEclipse. What is more, it is free!

    Anit,

    Running Windows 8.1 64bit. Trying to run Homesite+ 5.5. I have to enter the serial number three times t get it to run and then after a few minutes it crashes.

    I have this running on a server also with the same serial number; however, I never use them both at the same time.

    Thanks,

    Warren Wagner
