CGI variables are generated by the web server and you can never determine what will be available from server to server. If I were troubleshooting the first thing I would do is do a CF_dump of the CGI variables on the form page in question to see what variables are being returned by the web server when that pages is accessed.
If in fact the cgi.query_string is blank when there is a query string then the next place to look is in web server and/or connector settings. The other thing to look at is if the actual forum or section in the cflayoutarea is being called via Ajax and if so that call does or does not have a Query String because the cgi.query_string in that page will return the CGI variable from the ajax call and not the main page.
