About <strong>ColdFusion</strong> presentations<br />

<strong>ColdFusion</strong> lets you create dynamic slide presentations from source files and from CFML and<br />

HTML code on a <strong>ColdFusion</strong> page. You can use data extracted from a database to populate<br />

the slide content, including graphs and charts. Also, you can add images, audio tracks, and<br />

video clips to each slide in the presentation. <strong>ColdFusion</strong> provides three tags for creating slide<br />

presentations:<br />

Tag Description<br />

cfpresentation Defines the look of the presentation and determines whether the<br />

presentation is saved to files or run directly in the client browser.<br />

cfpresentationslide Defines the content of the slide from one of the following:<br />

• A SWF file<br />

• An HTML file<br />

• A URL that returns HTML content<br />

• HTML and CFML code in the cfpresentationslide start and end<br />

tags<br />

cfpresenter Provides information about the person presenting a slide. You can<br />

assign a presenter to one or more slides. Presenter information is<br />

displayed in the control panel for the duration of the slide.<br />
