Jacob,
Here is a version of this type of function:
<cffunction name="UnescapeFormValues" access="public" returntype="boolean"
output="no"
hint="This unescapes form values for use within the database.">
<!--- Define arguments. --->
<cfargument name="Form" type="struct" required="yes" />
<cfscript>
// Define the local scope.
var LOCAL = StructNew();
// To unescape, really all we need to do at the moment is
put back in the
// quotes so that the input values of form elements don't
break the page.
// Loop over form object and clean all values.
for (LOCAL.Key in FORM){
// Trim the field value.
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] = Trim(ARGUMENTS.Form[
LOCAL.Key ]);
// Since we want to store regular quotes in the
database, lets make
// sure we don't have any escaped quotes in the
submitted values.
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], """, Chr(34), "ALL");
// We don't want to store lame-ass Micorosoft
characters since they
// never display correctly on the screen
cross-browser. Replace the
// special characters that Microsoft uses.
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], Chr(8217), Chr(39), "ALL");
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], Chr(8216), Chr(39), "ALL");
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], Chr(8220), Chr(34), "ALL");
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], Chr(8221), Chr(34), "ALL");
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], Chr(8211), "-", "ALL");
ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ] =
Replace(ARGUMENTS.Form[ LOCAL.Key ], Chr(8212), "-", "ALL");
}
// Return out.
return(true);
</cfscript>
</cffunction>
As you can see, it trims all values in the form, and replaces out certain
values that I didn't want, like extended ascii values.

That would be very nice...I'm waiting to hear if anybody knows how to do
this.
