Hi there I looked at the CFForm examples and did some reading on cfform and preserve data. It appears to work for some fields such as cfinput, cfslider, cftextinput; but it does not appear to assist in retaining values selected in a drop down display.
Does anyone else have an idea on how a person can continue to retain the values which were selected.

The easiest way to do this is to use CFFORM for your form, and set the PRESERVEDATA attribute to "YES". For this to work, you need to use CFFORM in the first search form and in the one you place on the results page, and all of the fields must be named the same in both forms.
