This behavior drives me nuts. I thought it had to do with no-cache
headers on the site. When I removed of the no-cache cfheaders, my
users were able to go back to the form and have it retain the data
they input.

I have to say though, this was a maintenance job on very old code I
didn't write. I'm going to have to check out whether the form is
posting or getting now...

On other pieces I've written, I've gone the way of creating a hidden
form on the action page when an error exists, and have the user submit
that form to go back to the original form.

Cheers,
Kris
