fine to either page depending on which button I press. One thing I dont
understand is why you are assingning the values from a form field that is
already being passed into a hidden field that is also passed?
couldnt you do this in the js functions?
function rentSubmit()
{
document.the_form.action = ""> document.the_form.submit();
}
function orderSubmit()
{
document.the_form.action = ""> document.the_form.submit();
}
but, either way it seems to be submitting fine. i guess you could check the
syntax of your dump statement on the one page, and also turn debugging on to
see the form variables being passed.
hope this helps.

Subject: form variables not passed to action page - please help!
Hi Guys,
Am really hoping for someone to help me. I have this
problem and can't find a solution. I have a form with
two buttons with an onClick event each. Each button
calls a _javascript_ function. When the user clicks on
the button, I'm assigning all form field values to
hidden variables. When I dump the form values on the
action page,
I see the form field values (including hidden form
field values) for button 1, but don't see the same
when button 2 is clicked. Here is my code
<script LANGUAGE="_javascript_">
function rentSubmit()
{
with (document.the_form) {
FirstName_hid.value = FirstName.value;
LastName_hid.value = LastName.value;
}
document.the_form.action = ""> document.the_form.submit();
}
function orderSubmit()
{
with (document.the_form) {
FirstName_hid.value = FirstName.value;
LastName_hid.value = LastName.value;
}
document.the_form.action = ""> document.the_form.submit();
}
</script>
<form name="the_form" method="post">
<input type="text" name="FirstName" id="FirstName"
value="" size="56"><br>
<input type="text" name="LastName" id="LastName"
value="" size="56">
<input type="hidden" name="FirstName_hid" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="LastName_hid" value="">
<input type="button" name="Rent" value="Rental Form"
> <input type="button" name="Order" value="Order Form"
> </form>
When I click on the "Rent" button, I am taken to
RentalForm.cfm. In this file, I have a
<cfdump var="#form#">
It dumps all the form variables as I expect it to. But
when I click on the "Order" button, I get directed to
OrderForm.cfm but the cfdump on that page displays
nothing. I don't understand why I don't see the form
variables? Can somebody show/tell me how to fix this
problem.
Many Thanks,
Allan
