Use #evaluate("form.#test#")# to output the value of the form variable,
based on your looping construct.

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?
