I still support websites I previously wrote in CFML, aka ColdFusion. It was much nicer to work with than the alternatives on Windows, many years back, and it running atop Java since version 6 often turned out to be handy. It wasn't a bad way to bash out a website, and with some care, you could build decent stuff with it. Still, it's a loosely-typed (except when it isn't) language that exists in two forms - tag-based and Algol-ish (within <CFSCRIPT> tags) - and it carries a lot of Java-derived complexity in is API while not being as flexible as even JavaScript. Lately, I've been using Python and Flask to build sites in, which is far nicer.
