I wonder if it is possible to accelerate the process to show a CFFORM in Flash
format with Coldfusion MX 7 (we have the dveloper and standard edition and will

if the internet user has some text to read from the beginning of the page. But
let say we have a page based on the Flash form, than , the page will not be
displayed immediately.

I ask this question because I suspected that the Macromedia website is based
on that technology also and they not seems to suffered for delays.

is why it loads so quickly.

You can try to use the PRELOADER="FALSE" parameter in your CFFORM call. e.g.

<CFFORM NAME="form1" PRELOADER="FALSE" FORMAT="Flash">
