Oblio, I got your intended result by doing the following:

<cfinput
name="fld"
required="yes"
type="text"
validate="regular_expression"
pattern="^[\d]+$"
message="not an integer."
/>

I didn't bang on it too hard though, maybe you could test it further and see 
if it's failsafe.

It is lame though that you can't simply use the "integer" validation.
