RE: FORM scope into SESSION

IIRC I ran into that vary problem. Session.form = form does indeed just create a reference and I believe it caused me problems. Session.form = duplicate(form) does create a deep copy and is the solution I came to use, I believe. Sorry for the imprecise details. Hectic day, oracle database

Re: FORM scope into SESSION

Just ran a quick test to confirm and it does seem that cfset session.myForm = form / creates a copy by reference...and it will not persist beyond the form's action page. Doing a cfdump var=#session# after the action page shows that the structure key still exists...but it contains an empty

RE: FORM scope into SESSION

Asim You probably want that to be session.form = duplicate(form). Otherwise you will be losing the data once you leave the action page. And if you don't want the data to persist beyond this page why put it in session scope. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource
