Problem:

Datediff function does not calculate  differences correctly.  I think this might be a issue with the underlining java but still does not work correctly and therefore makes this function not reliable.
Method:

<cfset date = DateDiff('m','2/28/2010','8/28/2010')> <cfoutput>       <pre>               Difference: #date#       </pre> </cfoutput> Run that you would think you would get 6 But no you get 5.  Go figure.
