Hi folks, this is my first post to HOF! I was referred to the site through the 
Hostmysite developer forum. I have a question with regards to CFFORM.
I have two CFM pages structured like this (edited for this post)
NewMovieWizard.cfm:
<cfform action="NewMovieWizard.cfm?StepNum=#session.movWiz.stepNum#" 
method="POST"> <cfswitch expression="#session.movWiz.stepNum#">
<cfcase value="1">
<cfinclude template="step1.cfm">
</cfswitch>
</cfform>
step1.cfm:
<cfinput name="firstName" type="text" value="#session.ofgr.firstName#" 
size="40" maxlength="50" validateat="onSubmit" required="yes" message="Please 
enter your first name." />

This is actually taken from the CFWACK book by Ben Forta. I have a 5 page 
application form that I need to split into multiple pages. So instead of 
listing all the code from all 5 pages, my intention is to just cfinclude them 
into the main cfm file (NewMovieWizard.cfm).
The problem that happens is that when i get to the first cfcase=1, coldfusion 
gives me an error that the <cfinput> tag must be nested inside a <cfform> tag. 
As you can see the I have started off with a <cfform> but for some reason it is 
ignored with the included file.
Can anyone offer a reason why this occurs? Is this a bug or am I crazy?
Appreciate any help - THANKS!!!
I did notice that if I use <input> instead of <cfinput> the error is not 
recognized for that field. hmm
