Barney to the rescue again! Thanks man, works like a champ.
For the sake of the archives, here is a working example:
<cfif cgi.request_method is "post">
<cfset paramNames =
getPageContext().getRequest().getHttpRequest().getParameterNames() />
<cfscript>
while(paramNames.hasMoreElements())
{
thisField = paramNames.nextElement();
writeoutput(thisField & ' = ' & form[thisField] &
'<br />');
}
</cfscript>
</cfif>
<hr />
<form name="tempForm" action="#cgi.script_name#" method="post">
FieldOne: <input type="text" name="fieldOne" value="1" /><br />
FieldTwo: <input type="text" name="fieldTwo" value="2" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="SubmitForm"
value="SubmitIt" />
</form>

You can use the HttpServletRequest object
(getPageContext().getRequest()) to pull an enumeration of
case-sensitive parameter names.
