needs to be
<cfif>
<cfform></cfform>
<cfelse>
<cfform></cfform>
</cfif>
but you could do:
<cfif IsDefined ('URL.myvariable')>
<cfset Q="?myvariable=true">
<cfelse>
<cfset q="">
</cfif>
<cfform action="emp_add_action.cfm#q#" >
</cfform>

I remember having a problem like that, I believe that ColdFusion interperts
tag nesting before evaluating CFIF and other statements within code. Which
means your code must start and end evenly. It may seem redundant but
putting the entire form within each of the CFIF brackets I believe is the
only way out of this one.

There Must be something I don't know about CFIF. I want to check if a URL =
variable exists. If it does, I want to add the same variable to the URL =
of the action of a CFForm, basically so I can check for it on the action =
page, and use it to re-route a cflocation. =20
Here's the problem. I have a CFIF that, if it's true, starts a CFFORM =
with the URL variable included in the action, then it has a CFELSE that =
starts the same form, just without the URL variable. Problem is, it =
doesn't work. Tells me that there's an extraneous </CFFORM> at the bottom =
of the template. Basically, whether or not the criterion is met, it =
doesn't start the form. =20
I musta missed something about CFIF, CFELSE, or CFFORM. Any Ideas? =
Here's my logic:
<cfif IsDefined ('URL.myvariable')>
<cfform action=3D"emp_add_action.cfm?myvariable=3Dtrue" method=3D"post"
=
enablecab=3D"Yes">
<cfelse>
<cfform action=3D"emp_add_action.cfm" method=3D"POST"
enablecab=3D"Yes">=
</cfif>
Whether myvariable exists or not it doesn't print either of the cfform =
lines.
