Is there an equivalent of jslint for ColdFusion?

+5  A: 

I've not encountered anything particularly lint-like for CF, but there are assorted syntax checkers:

There are no online validators that I am aware of for ColdFusion. You can download the free open source Eclipse (1.4) and install the free CFEclipse Plug-In for ColdFusion which includes a dictionary reference for ColdFusion as well as a syntax error checker. Very handy for checking for errors as you write your CFML.

You can download Eclipse at www.eclipse.org and the CFEclipse plug-in at cfeclipse.org.

Although woefully inadequate for what you want, the Code Compatibility Analyzer that comes with Coldfusion can do some basic checking.

It is primailary focused on upgrading from earlier versions so you won't get a lot of a WHOLE lot out of it.

It will not perform any scoping checks, which I believe Coldfusion Really needs.
