becausee the URL scope only holds the values of the last of the repeated AB
fields, you need to loop over the querystring itself, like this.
<cfparam name="ab" default="">
<cfoutput>#query_string#</cfoutput>
<cfloop list="#query_string#" index="x" delimiters="&">
<cfif ListFind(x, 'ab' , '=' )>
<cfset ab = Listappend(ab, ListGetAt(x, 2 ,'='))>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
This gives you a comma delimited list of all the ab values.
