Handling exceptions

ColdFusion provides two statements for exception handling in CFScript: try and catch. These statements are equivalent to the CFML cftry and cfcatch tags.

Note: This section does not explain exception-handling concepts. For a discussion of exception handling in ColdFusion, see Handling Errors.

Comments are no longer accepted for ColdFusion MX 6.1. ColdFusion 8 is the current version.

This page, as it stands, does is completely devoid of value. There is no explanation as to the syntax of a try/catch statement in script, which is very different from one in CFML, and NOT "equivalent" to the try/catch tags.

Click the right arrow to see an example try/catch.

You might try the PDF docs to get a better view of the big picture (http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/documentation.html).

It would have been usefull to add the throw() statement to error-handling in cfscript. Since try/catch are available why not the other error-handling features or regular CFML?
