thanx Steve. >> From memory, cflocation uses headers to to the redirect
yes. Error 302 "page has temporarily moved". Same as ASP's response.redirect(url) whereas getPageContext().forward is more like ASP's server.transfer(filename) that at least makes sense. the page is still loaded in memory, inc the submitted form so the server side re-direct really just loads the new page in at that point. you're right - clearing the FORM scope would clear this up. Because the FORM scope is effectively shared at that point then it's as if it's a server side include (but there's one of them available at the java level anyway) well this clears this up in any case. thanx again cheers barry.b -----Original Message----- From: Steve Onnis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 28 April 2004 5:48 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] RE: getPageContext().forward() wierdness barry >From memory, cflocation uses headers to to the redirect, thus you loose all your server vars including your form scope getPageContext().forward(thispage & "?action=addnew"); does it serverside basically telling the server to, when its done processing, to do to that page rather than the page defined in the original headers, so your not actually leaving the cf servers environment in this case, thus holding onto your form scope. you may have to clear the form scope before you call the redirect, or write a little CFFUNCTION that calls the getPageContext.... so you can still call a redirect from your cfscript Steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Barry Beattie Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2004 4:39 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] getPageContext().forward() wierdness Hi all I'm using this in CFScript: getPageContext().forward(thispage & "?action=addnew"); to reload the page after a save for a new form display. Trouble is that it, with the logic I'm using (below), it seems to want to go around again, like the FORM scope persists. Going back to CFLOCATION works fine. Can this happen? Because this is a server-side re-direct (reload the target page), can the FORM scope still persist after getPageContext is called? the main page processing logicw when the form submitted <cfscript> objRequisition = createobject("component", "XXX").init(dsnInfo, cmpy); if (isDefined("form.fieldnames")){ if (isNew){ // NEW setObjPropertiesFromForm(objRequisition); objRequisition.AddNew(); }else if(isEdit){ // EDIT setObjPropertiesFromForm(objRequisition); objRequisition.Update(); }else{ abort(); } getPageContext().forward(thispage & "?action=addnew"); // reload this page for a new requisition }else{ if (isNew){ // new requisition fillFormFromDefaults(); }else if(isEdit){ // from link objRequisition.get(URL.req); fillFormFromObject(objRequisition); }else{ abort(); } } </cfscript> --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004
