ColdFusion Tag is not supported - coldfusion

I am new to ColdFusion and downloaded the latest version of Railo which is compatible with ColdFusion 10.
I want to use the CFGrid and CFWebsocket tags which are included in Adobe's ColdFusion 10`, as you can see in the documentation.
But when I start my application, an error says that these tags are not supported.

Railo 4.2 is roughly compatible with CF10, but there are some things it doesn't support, among them cfgrid and cfwebsocket.

Update Sitecore and SIP together?

I currently have the task of updating a Sitecore Instance 6.6 with SIP 3.2. The target is reaching Sitecore 7.0, so we can use Item Buckets.
The problem is when I update Sitecore to 7.0, it doesn't work with SIP 3.2, because assembly references doesn't match anymore and Sitecore 7.0 runs on .NET 4.5, where SIP 3.2 runs on .NET 3.5. So the Sitecore Backend does not work anymore and I cannot update the SIP.
If I update the SIP to 4.0 (which works with Sitecore 7.0) before updating the Sitecore Instance to 7.0, I get a similar problem.
Any idea what I can do to update both together? Or is there another way of achiving Sitecore 7.0 with SIP 4.0?
I would recommend uninstalling SIP first. You can achieve this is via removing the code files and configs from the solution manually - you can try leaving the Sitecore Items there as they shouldn't cause issues.
It will be helpful to redownloading the SIP package, unzip to see the files and view which files and configs it contains, then remove those from your solution.
A simpler way if you have Sitecore Rocks is to create an Anti-package - https://www.sitecore.net/nl-be/learn/blogs/technical-blogs/trevor-campbell/posts/2013/02/28-days-of-sitecore-rocks-package-management-part-1.aspx
Once you have removed SIP, complete your upgrade of Sitecore and confirm your site serves correctly afterwards.
Then its a matter of installing the correct version of SIP for the version of Sitecore 7 you have upgraded to. This will mitigate the issue of assemblies being different versions.
I would recommend backing up your databases before the upgrade as best practice but to also retrieve any SIP Item you may later need.

Can we run MVC4 application in Sitecore CMS 7.2 rev.140526 or does it require MVC5?

I have installed visual studio 2012(supporting MVC4 and .NET 4.5) and Sitecore CMS 7.2 rev.140526. I am able to run the Sitecore using admin user and launch the website too.
I was going through this tutorial on MVC integration with Sitecore which creates an MVC application in visual studio and then integrates in the Sitecore CMS site. When I followed the same steps I got error. The MVC version used in this tutorial is MVC3 and the Sitecore version is 7.1.
I have tried the same in my machine but got the error Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.1.0.0. From the error I understand that it is looking for MVC5 but in machine I have only MVC4.
Is there any way to resolve this?
First of all, is Sitecore 7.2 is compiled in MVC4 or MVC5?
Here is the Sitecore compatibility table:
https://kb.sitecore.net/articles/087164
It clearly states that Sitecore 7.1 is compatible with MVC 4 but newer versions of Sitecore (7.2 and 7.5) do not support MVC 4 and they require ASP.NET MVC 5.1

Does IE 11 support applications developed in Silverlight 5?

We have developed a web application with using Silverlight 5. We are facing problems in IE 11. The application is not even loading in IE 11. But it is working fine in IE 10 and other browsers like Chrome and Mozilla.
When we debug, the "Silverlight.__startup();" function itself is not called when we focused the silverlight object. Could you please clarify for us whether will IE 11 support Silverlight applications or not. If yes, could you please provide some tips / suggestions to load the SL application in IE 11. If you can able to provide a sample app, that will be great for me.
Also, we are using jquery 1.4.1 version. Will IE 11 support this version or not. If not, which version of jquery we have to use in IE 11?
You should upgrade to the latest version of jQuery.
In principle, Desktop IE11 will support Silverlight in the Trusted Sites and Intranet zones.
The Immersive version of IE (Win8/Win8.1 app environment) doesn't support add-ons.
Silverlight is a legacy add-on which is not compatible with Enhanced Protected Mode, which is now on-by-default in the Internet Zone.
I just install IE11 replacing IE10 on Windows 7, and all my application Under Silverlight work fine.
What I have done :
option Internet Intranet : allow initialize activeX
Parameter compatibility : set to Trust my Intranet Server.
Surprise : I can look demo of Devexpress.com on Silverlight, without any change on security on Internet

I know there old and everything, and I already have Coldfusion 8, but I found a great hosting deal and need Coldfusion mx6.1 for it - deos anyone have a link to a place where i can download it?

CF upon request:

hth,
john.
UPDATE 19/01/2012 - The above link is still active!
If you have good hosting deal and want cheap (or free) CFML engine, why wouldn't you try the Railo?
If you want a free CFML engine, then Railo is definitely the way to go! I've had it running on my server for about a year now and love it!
Official Coldfusion 6 is no longer downloadable from Adobe and support is discontinued.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402091.html
There is no free edition of Coldfusion which can be used for business. Coldfusion 9 has a free educational version for universities as well as a developer's edition which can be used for up to two (2) ip addresses.

Migrating from ColdFusion MX (6, I think) to ColdFusion 7

I'm thinking of migrating my sites from ColdFusion MX to ColdFusion 7. Are there any issues I should be aware of? I heard that ColdFusion is backwards compatible.
Use the ColdFusion MX7's Code Compatibility Analyzer on your apps.
