Hmm, 

Now that you mention it I do remember cold fusion having some kind of
checking ability like this. It seems that if the field is called "due", it
would still show up on my list of fieldnames. This is not happening. 

Because of the database_design I cannot change the name of my fields. Is
there any way I can turn this feature off?

If you use "_date" appended to your field names CF will try to validate the
field. Therefore the form field is in fact called "ticketXXdue" rather than
"ticketXXdue_date". Just change the name of the field to not end with
"_date" ("_required" or a few other reserved names).

People, 

I've encountered the strangest problem in a long time using Cold Fusion.
I've got a form which posts to a Cold fusion page. One of the form elements
is:

<INPUT SIZE="25" NAME="ticketXXdue_date" TYPE="text" MAXLENGTH="50"
SIZE="25" VALUE=""   MAXLENGTH="50">

When I look at my Cold Fusion Debugging information on the page that is
supposed to use this form:

FIELDNAMES=TICKETXXTYPE_ID,TICKETXXCATEGORY_ID,TICKETXXDESCRIPTION,TICKET_AC
TIONXXTICKET_OWNER_ID,TICKET_ACTIONXXTECHGROUP_ID
TICKET_ACTIONXXTECHGROUP_ID=0
TICKET_ACTIONXXTICKET_OWNER_ID=1
TICKETXXCATEGORY_ID=4
TICKETXXDESCRIPTION=dink
TICKETXXDUE_DATE=10-26-01
TICKETXXREMIND_DATE=
TICKETXXTYPE_ID=2

When I go through the output from the form.fieldnames:
TICKETXXTYPE_ID,TICKETXXCATEGORY_ID,TICKETXXDESCRIPTION,TICKET_ACTIONXXTICKE
T_OWNER_ID,TICKET_ACTIONXXTECHGROUP_ID

As you can see, the due_date (along with the remind_date) are not showing
up! Consequently my Database is not inserting this field and my application
is not behaving the way I want it. 

When I change the fieldname to anything but due_date (say TICKETXXDUE_DODO)
It will show up. 

It seems to me like there is something that the Cold fusion server does to
form entries that contain a _date in their name. But I cannot verify this.
Has anyone else had experience with this?
