Hi Jon, I'm not sure that I completely understand your problem, but I'll take a stab at it anyway ;-)
You should use the isdefined() function to make sure that the values/variables exist. If they don't, then use <cflocation> to send them to the page where they should initially be defined. To continuously pass the form params through your series of pages, you could do it through url vars or through hidden form fields. Using hidden form fields will prevent the user from tampering with the data, which is what I prefer. Another method would be to use session or client vars. Also, make sure you always scope your variables: #url.myvariable#, #variables.myvariable# and so on...

Newbie Question...... I need to pass 2 URL Vars to pre fill an insert form. >From the Detail Page; PreID and PreEM are form a display table that is generated from the same URL.PreID passed from a master page. <a href="Ins_Blah.cfm?PreID=#URL.PreID#&#preEM#">add Extra info</a> The next Insert Form; Do I need to do an IsDefined() to get the passed VARs to pre fill 2 of the 3 fields? I need 2 to be filled and one to be blank for input. The need to be filled so the person can keep track of what he is doing. <td> <cfoutput> <input type="text" name="PreID" Value="#URL.PreID#"></cfoutput> </td> Any suggestions???
