It's funny...I finally got around to ignoring cfform in 4.5.2 and running my own validation and using cfqueryparam, etc...now I'm surrfering because I'm not using it with CF7...
For now I need to go with a REReplace to strip out anything but 0-9...could you show me how to write that? (Couldn't find that example in my dog-eared copy of CF Application Kit for 4.0 published in 1998 by somebody named "Forta"... :o) Rick > -----Original Message----- > From: Mike Kear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, March 06, 2006 10:00 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: Ok, I give...how can I do this... > > > i hate to keep on beating a dead horse, but in CFMX7, you just use <cfform > instead of <form and have <cfinput name="whatever" label="whatever" > validate="numeric" .... and it takes care of it for you.
