Put the text you want to display into a variable. Pass the variable from
page to page. When you want to display it, assign the variable to the
textarea.

Subject: Passing a formfield along a multi-form page
This should be so simple.... I've got a site going online on Friday, and I
can't finish the shopping cart becuase of this! Please help!
Thanks!
I have a page of cfoutput in my form.
I snared the whole page by repeating it and enclosing it in
a textarea tag, like so:
<form>
actual page output
<textarea name=productinfo>
page output repeated
</textarea>
<input type=submit>
</form>
Now this is pretty ugly, even set to row1 col1, but at least it works. The
problem is that I can call this textarea on the next page and display it,
but that's not what I want to do. I want to hide it on the first page it
comes to and display it on the one that comes after that, so I have to pass
it invisibly.
I've tried
<set productinfo = #productinfo#>and invisible field
<parameter name=productinfo default=#productinfo#>
then trying to pass it inside the form
<input type=hidden name=productinfo2 value=productinfo>
and just assuming it is getting passed and putting a simple
<input type=hidden name=#productinfo#>
which outputs it in that page and does not hide it at all.
How DO you do this?
Thanks for any help!
Britta
