Loryn,
I think this is what you're asking but forgive me if I've misunderstood the
question:
All of your form input values, when submitted with a GET command, will be
accessible from the URL.
This means that any variables from your form can be accessed on the form
action's target template from within the URL scope.
An example:
Your form contains
<form action="process.cfm" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="this" value="sausage">
</form>
When submitted, the url in the browser will show:
http://www.funjunkie.co.uk/process.cfm?this=sausage
Which you can access as 'url.this'
so <cfoutput>#url.this#</cfoutput> will show 'sausage'
This doesn't have to apply to forms submitted with GET only - any variable
put into the URL can be accessed like this.
If you have multiple values in your form, you'll be able to access them
individually as 'url.nameofthisvariable1' and 'url.nameofthisvariable2' etc
etc.
Be aware that if you have checkboxes in your form and they are not checked
then they won't be passed in the url.
