I've crawled inside and out of the documentation for how to pass html form data to a cfc and display the result (see http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=buildingComponents_15.html) but -- possibly due to "If the CFC returns a result using the cfreturn tag, ColdFusion converts the text to HTML edit format, puts it in a WDDX packet, and includes the packet in the HTML that it returns to the client." -- I cannot find any way to display the results of passing info either by form or URL ( all that happens on form submit is this url http://70.XX.XX.XX:8500/olo/cfc/SearchOwners.cfc?method=getEmp in the address bar and a completely empty screen).
