Javascript can work miracles here...
use JS to populate a hidden form field on submit.
function checkQty( theForm ){
// check all QUANTITY fields
for( k=0; k<theForm.elements.length; k++ ){
if( fieldName.indexOf("quantity") >= 0 ){
fieldValue = "0" + theForm.elements[k].value;
if( parseInt(fieldValue) > 0 )
theForm.hidIDs.value += "," +
theForm.elements[k].name;
}
}
}
You may want to use JS to parse out the actual item ID if you are so
inclined. Anyway, you'll get a hidden field [hidIDs] passed to the
processing page containing a comma-delimited list of the items that had a
QTY greater than 0.

Subject: Dynamically Processing Form Values
Hello all. New to the list - Hope someone can help me. Of course time is
somewhat urgent on this.
I have a lengthy form page. It is created through 5 cfqueries for eachmain
subject. The entire page is a form. I have javascript arrays that populate a
summary area on the fly when someone enteres a quantity.
Each product has a unique identifiers....product0 - product"i" - whatever
the recordcount is.
So another words - it loops through all records.. starting with "product0"
and currently ending in "product79"
Each product has about 4 form values I need to process..
So product0 - has itemqty0, itemdesc0, itemname0 and so on.
BUT I ONLY want products that have itemQty ( quantity) that is GT 0 to
display.With 79 products - each with 4 pieces of information - that becomes
316 of #FORM.Product0#
#FORM.ItemQty0# and so on.
The latest thing I tried was very straightforward.. except too straigh
forward.. do not know how to interject and only spit out the variabls with
itemqty
of GTE 1
<CFLOOP COLLECTION="#form#" ITEM="myfield">
#variables.myfield# : #form[myfield]#
</CFLOOP>
In my head it seems o straightforward.. but whatever I have tried does not
produce the right results.
So to recap my request. I have over 300 form values on the form page. On the
Form Process page - I wish to spit back out ONLY those that have a value in
the qty field of 0 or better.
Whatever I attempt I am unable to get this to work - seems like it should be
so simple. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason Miller
