And bind or jQuery / ExtJS plugin that can do an Ajax call will be able to do this.
All you need to do is bind (Bind is the same as an Ajax call) to a component that could do the lookup for you. I am not sure if bind in ColdFusion can delay sending till a certain amount of characters are entered, but you could even do an onblur even to call an Ajax call and then decided on if the part exists or not. -- Regards, Andrew Scott WebSite: http://www.andyscott.id.au/ Google+: http://plus.google.com/108193156965451149543 On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 3:16 AM, Les Mizzell <[email protected]> wrote: > > Trying to figure out how to validate a specific cfinput text input field. > > I need this input to NOT allow any previously existing value coming from > a query.
