Where are you "setting" (for example....<cfset session.lname =
"#form.lname#">) the form fields to session variables?
How would cf server know you wanted these form fields as session var's
unless you tell it? :-)
Seems your missing the step that sets the variables to seesion var's. This
would be done on screen2.cfm, prior to trying to display them.
<cfset session.lname = "#form.lname#">
<cfset session.fname = "#form.fname#">
<cfset session.email = "#form.email#">
<cfset session.phone = "#form.phone#">
<cfset session.coname = "#form.coname#">
<cfset session.title = "#form.title#">
Im not sure I understand your need for placing these cfparams in your
application.cfm, but Im sure you have your reasons. Maybe these really
belong in your "screen2.cfm" also?
