If you can use JavaScript, you can have your link trigger a JavaScript
function that changes the action of the form, then submits the form:
<a href="javascript:enroll()">Enroll</a>
...
<script language="JavaScript">
function enroll()
{
document.forms[0].action = "enroll.cfm";
document.forms[0].submit();
}
</script>
Alternatively, you could have the link set a form field value, then
use CF in your action page to check for the existence of the form
field value, and show the user the appropriate results in either case.
You could just have a checkbox for this.
