after checking some other forums, it turns out this behaviour is also in CFMX, and is meant to be a feature, not a bug. i didn't see any convincing arguments why this should be. other than because CFGrid etc only work if you use POST, and that you can only access the Form scope if you've POSTed the form. which is weak.
anyone else care to offer their wisdom on this one? apart from the obvious solution which I'll have to take - ditch the CFForm Duncan Cumming IT Manager http://www.alienationdesign.co.uk mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: 0141 575 9700 Fax: 0141 575 9600 Creative solutions in a technical world ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Get your domain names online from: http://www.alienationdomains.co.uk Reseller options available! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] sign.co.uk To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: 17/03/2004 16:11 Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] CFForm method bug? Please respond to dev hmm, after re-reading the CFML language reference, it turns out Method isn't actually one of the recognised attributes for CFForm, which I found surprising. So, decided to try using the 'passthrough' attribute instead for "HTML attributes that are not explicitly supported by CFFORM". and end up with this: <FORM NAME="test" ACTION="test.cfm" METHOD=POST onSubmit="return _CF_checktest(this)" method="GET"> Duncan Cumming IT Manager http://www.alienationdesign.co.uk mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: 0141 575 9700 Fax: 0141 575 9600 Creative solutions in a technical world ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Get your domain names online from: http://www.alienationdomains.co.uk Reseller options available! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] sign.co.uk To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: 17/03/2004 16:08 Subject: [ cf-dev ] CFForm method bug?
