F5 is another request, it just mirrors the last request, so it passes any form variables along as it should.
There isn't a script or anything causing it to reload the page or send it to the new URL, without accounting for the form variables is there? Ok using FB I assume that the variables your talking about start off life as form variables right? See if form.varName comes back undefined. I am betting that for whatever reason rather than doing like a refresh and passing the form variables along with the request, it's just sending the browser to that page. Now since your using FB, and I assume your using a script or something to send the user to the url of the action page you can pass those variables appended on the url and they will still be available in the attributes scope. That make any sense?

This testing team is really eating my time and brain????? regards badal -----Original Message----- From: Nagy, Daniel J [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 6:32 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Browser resize looses attributes scope <cfparam name="attributes.foo" default=""> <cfif Len(attributes.foo) GT 1> do something here. </cfif> it's a coding style rather than an axiom, but it works for me. i know this isn't the panacea he's looking for, but it -will- stop the error. :P i'm really more curious as to why the page refreshes on browser resize. --d. -----Original Message----- From: GL [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 9:00 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Browser resize looses attributes scope But that would render the page useless, if you discount the reason that these variables don't exist. Just faking a value for them isn't going to accomplish anything. -----Original Message----- From: Nagy, Daniel J [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 7:48 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Browser resize looses attributes scope if the variables have no value on initial load of that page, use a cfparam tag to ensure that they exist on pageload. -----Original Message----- From: Tyagi, Badal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 8:44 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Browser resize looses attributes scope Thanks Daniel, but there is no need to resize the window it was just caught during testing when one of the testers did this.

Now when one page is called with few attributes type variables, the page gets loaded but the problem occures when we resize the browser window, because the page refreshes automatically and page looses its attributes values and CF throws ERROR saying "Element QUOT_SUB_QUOTE is undefined in ATTRIBUTES" This happens anywhere in the application where attributes.varname is called and they are now "Undefined" as error says. Any help on this issue? regards, badal Tyagi, HCL Perot Systems, Noida, India ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
