Hello, everyone. I'm pretty new to the ColdFusion world, so please forgive me if I
ask something that seems a little obvious. I'm still learning the ropes.
In the Feb 2000 issue of ColdFusion Journal, there's some code that creates some
killer form wizards. One problem, though. The WizForm.cfm custom tag that collects
info from "screen" to "screen" also includes the buttons (back, submit, next). This
is fine for a straight wizard, but I want to pass the info in a CFMail tag to an
e-mail that is stored in one of the form variables. I can get everything to work, but
when I send the info to the processing page where the CFMail tag is, it sends the mail
and shows the user a confirmation page - - - with a back, submit, and next button on
it! It's making me crazy. How do I get these buttons off of here.
<!- - - Here is the WizForm.cfm custom tag - - ->
<CFSET ButtonWidth = 90>
<CFIF ThisTag.ExecutionMode is 'start'>
<CFSET Caller.Fields = StructNew()>
<!--- deserialize wddx into Field struct --->
<CFWDDX Action=WDDX2CFML Input="#FORM.WizFields#" Output="Caller.Fields">
<!--- Update Fields struct for all fields submitted via FORM --->
<CFSCRIPT>
for (thisKey in Caller.Fields)
{
if(isDefined("FORM." & thisKey))
Caller.Fields[thisKey] = evaluate("FORM." & thisKey);
}
</CFSCRIPT>
<!--- serialize Fields structure back into wddx packet and then hide in hidden field
--->
<CFWDDX Action="CFML2WDDX" Input="#Caller.Fields#" Output="FieldWDDX">
<CFOUTPUT>
<FORM Name="WizForm" Method="Post">

So, that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.
For the bio stuff... here goes...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Coming from a Web Design position in a Help Desk oriented IT division, I've been
working mostly with FrontPage 2000 on a Netscape Enterprise 3.6 Server. I have more
server/systems background than scripting/coding background so I feel like I'm doing
this stuff a little haphazardly at times, but it's pretty cool and I'm getting into it.
What else is there? Oh yeah!
Dr. Pepper, Doritos, and Chocolate. That should cover the rest of the "developer"
stuff. ;-)
Take care, all, and let me know if you can help me out!
Much appreciated,
Amy
