>
>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?
