The problem with that is two-fold. First, I'm in a clustered environment, so
I can't use session variables. Second, I am receiving  a 15K WDDX packet
back from a Python server that I am de-serializing. So setting the packet to
a client variable isn't reasonable either. The resulting variable would be
huge and a burden on the CF server because it would inherently be retrieved
on every CF call within the application.

Also, as a rule of thumb, I always have my forms submit to themselves. This
allows me to have self-contained forms which are easy to re-use and
maintain.

Regards,
Dave.
