Usage
If the values of the expressions in the containing cfif tag and all cfelseif tags are false,
ColdFusion processes the code between this tag and the
cfif end tag. This tag must be inside a
cfif tag block. It does not require an end tag.
For more information and an example, see
cfif on page 187.
