thanks to all that responded, that's what I though... my work around, since
I have a whole bunch of fields on the first form, will be to save the fields
to a client variable on the first template and then assign their values to a
hidden field inside the last form, since the last form gets posted by the
client, then all the fields on the first template will be available again...
I have not tried this, but in theory it should work.... :-)

You're correct; you can't pass form fields via CFLOCATION. You also can't
simply define the form fields before doing the CFLOCATION, either. Finally,
you can't submit a form using CFSCRIPT; submitting a form is a client-side
operation.
If you don't have too much form data, you could pass variables received from
a form as URL parameters:
<cflocation
url="myotherpage.cfm?formfield1=#Form.formfield1#&formfield2=#Form.formfield
2#">
Of course, you'll need to reference those variables as URL parameters in the
page to which you send them.
