<cfloop index="test" list="#FORM.fieldnames#" delimiters=",">
#test# :     #FORM.#test##  <br>
</cfloop>


Got too many Hash marks buddy.  Should be #Form.test#, NOT #Form.#test##.
Test is the NAME of the formfield as I can see. So using #Form.test# will
display the value of that field

Subject: Kooky Form Field/List question.



I work on a college campus, and frequently I'm asked by
faculty/staff/students, why they can't just make a form in front page
express and have it send them an email (and we don't have the server
extensions).  I have the hardest time explaining what a form handler is, and
how frontpage just can't do it.

So, I decided to make a generic Coldfusion form handler.  Something that,
provided it was passed an email address, subject line, and a redirect URL
(for the success message), it would make an email to the address.  Ok, this
is the easy part.  I have it already.  The problem is, I need also to pass
*any form fields* other than the ones required for the email in the body of
the email.  Biology is going to need different things on their form than
accounting, see, so I want to make this thing totally generic.  

So, here's the problem.  I can use the automatically-created FORM.fieldnames
list to get the field names onto the email like this:

<cfloop index="test" list="#FORM.fieldnames#" delimiters=",">
#test# :       <br>
</cfloop>

This code puts the names of the form field onto the email.  Easy.  I can
also test them for whether or not they're one of my required fields, and not
print them if they are.   What I can't do is print the VALUE of the form
fields.  Make sense?  I was hoping I could do something like this:

<cfloop index="test" list="#FORM.fieldnames#" delimiters=",">
#test# :     #FORM.#test##  <br>
</cfloop>

Yeah, but I can't.  Any thoughts?
