the validation obj will be accessible by all forms across many sites. 

So do you mean that each form from each site should also pass an xml
string detailing which field needs what validation? If not, what do you
mean exactly?

if i can do without the prefix it will make my life easier

It will, but ive only just started out! I am hoping to have a global error
object, form object, validation object, and ive also thought about doing a
global DAO. any others i could implement? your views

oh yes, i agree, but i thought that there may have been more emphasis on
teaching the benefits of oop and what can be done in cf so far (thus i
could have concentrated on these methods from the start). joined the
various lists you suggested, tuned brain to sponge mode and off i go!

cheers for the info guys
