RSS feeds with ColdFusion?

I did a forum search here for this before posting but didn't really find a definitive answer.

Is there a good tool to generate RSS feeds when you're using ColdFusion as a platform?

A couple of years ago I purchased a plugin from Interakt (sp?) that generated RSS feeds using PHP very quickly (connecting to the database, etc.). I just had to enter the parameters that I wanted syndicated and PRESTO! Instant RSS!

Is there a comparable tool (Dreamweaver type plug-in or stand-alone application) for ColdFusion? I'm switching all of my coding efforts to ColdFusion this year for the college where I work.

thank you!

Download CFBlog from Ray Camden, he has some code that generates some real nice RSS output.

You may find other CF resources there that accomplish your goal too.

RSS files are just basic XML formatted text documents with a few required syntaxes. If you have another file to use as a guide, you can easily just create your own dynamic RSS output in CF.
