ColdFusion is a Web application development tool that creates dynamic Web pages and interactive Web sites. An interactive Web site consists of dynamic page templates that contains both HTML and CFML tags. When a page containing both tags is requested by the browser, the server dynamically generates an HTML page based on the request.
