That's by design in ColdFusion:
The following table describes the hidden field suffixes that you can use to do
validation:
_integer
Custom error message
Verifies that the user entered a number. If the user enters a floating point
value, it is rounded to an integer.
_float
Custom error message
Verifies that the user entered a number. Does not do any rounding of floating
point values.
_range
MIN=MinValue
MAX=MaxValue
Verifies that the numeric value entered is within the specified boundaries. You
can specify one or both of the boundaries
separated by a space.
_date
Custom error message
Verifies that the user entered a date and converts the date into the proper ODBC
date format. Will accept most common date
forms; for example,
9/1/98; Sept. 9, 1998.
_time
Custom error message
Verifies that the user correctly entered a time and converts the time to the
proper ODBC time format.
_eurodate
Custom error message
Verifies that the user entered a date in a standard European date format and
converts into the proper ODBC date format.
