Re: losing form on cflocation

A cflocation is simply a redirect for the browser and so, yes, all form vars are lost.  What you can do is save all of the posted data to session variables, do the redirect and then use the session vars in your template.

  Subject: losing form on cflocation

  I have a registration form that I want to insert to a DB after
  validation.  To validate a unique name, I reload the form and query
  on the information.  If it's a unique name, I <cflocation> to the
  INSERT page.  Thing is, when I get to the insert page, the form is no
  longer available.  I assume it's because cflocation is doing a
  replace().  Is there a cure for this?

  btw, I'm validating this way so that if there's an unique
  registration error, the form still has it's values.

  thanks!
