Matt,
You might want to check out my wddxFormLibrary and CF_FormWizard tags. It's
a client-side solution, but it will automatically repopulate a form's
content on the client side. There's no need to program in the form field
names either, this can all be re-calculate based upon a structure or an
existing saved WDDX packet.
It's very easy to use: http://www.oacfug.org/users/dswitzer/forms/

Subject: De-referencing dynamic variables
I have a variable name that is passed as an attribute to a custom tag that
outputs some html (form fields). I want to reference a variable that has a
dynamic name.
The tag is called multiple times, with a different prefix for the form
fields. Here is an example:
The prefix passed to the tag is "Image" (in this example).
The tag appends "SortBy".
The final form name is "ImageSortBy", and it is a pull-down.
I could write a CFIF for each possible prefix:
<CFIF Attributes.VarPrefix IS "Image" AND Form.ImageSortBy IS "TRUE>
Populate the form with true, blah blah blah
</CFIF>
But I would prefer to write this once, like this, if it worked that is:
<CFIF Form.#Attributes.VarPrefix#SortBy IS "TRUE>
Populate the form with true, blah blah blah
</CFIF>
How do I reference this dynamic variable?
Thanks,
Matt
