Hmm..well...I wouldn't call myself a Guru..but juuuust maybe I could help
you anyways ;-P
On the Action page of that form, all you have to do before you enter the
values into you're database..
is
<CFSET form.passing_this_value = #form.passing_this_value# &
#my_little_end_marker_thingy#>
or just
<CFSET form.passing_this_value = #form.passing_this_value# & '@'>
assuming @ is what you want to append.
someone can correct the positioning of the # and # etc...but you see what
I'm getting at?
You need to set the form variable on the succeeding page, or wherever the
form hands off to after the user presses submit.
At the point the user presses Submit and CF goes onto the next form, you
have access to the variables the user entered, and you are free to do what
you like with them.
Let me know if this helped at all :)
I also am a bit curious as to why you want to put an "end marker" at the end
of the text string the user enters...??
