We're having a strange problem with form field
parameters not being recognized when being passed to a
second page even though all the code is there and the
form field is present.

Here's the code on the original page:

<form action="http://www.fancyblooms.com/test.cfm";
method="post">

<INPUT NAME="gname" TYPE="TEXT" SIZE="35"
MAXLENGTH="75" value="" style="font-family:
Verdana,Arial; font-size: 9pt;">

... more form fields here

<input type="submit" name="next" value="Next ->">
</form>

On the second page, test.cfm, there is a check to make
sure that the first form field, gname, is not blank. 

<CFIF form.gname IS "">
<b>Error</b><P>

... etc

The error that SOME visitors get is:

"Error resolving parameter FORM.GNAME. The specified
form field cannot be found .... "

Now, I know the form field is there, and I can't
duplicate this error under any of the PC based
browsers we use (IE, Netscape, Opera). The only common
thing I do know is that the few people that did get
this error are using AOL 5.0 and are on the MAC
platform. 

I understand that I could use client side validation
with CFFORM to make sure these fields are not empty,
but I'm trying to avoid all the Javascript that goes
along with it. 

Is anyone familiar with this problem? Is it AOL and
MAC related? Any suggestions?

Thanks everyone!

Mark
