I use a combination of Client Side JavaScript and a hidden input form value
like below. This below will trigger CFAS to look for that form field and
will display a page telling you which form fields are missing, the user then
has to use the back button to go back and fix the problems. It's not a real
pretty option, but it works well for what your trying to do. To make a
field required you just add the required value to the name of the form field
and make it a hidden type like below.
<cfinput type="text" name="myformfield" required="Yes" message="Please fill
in this field" ....>
<input type="hidden" name="myformfield_required" value="Please user your
back button and provide the value required for myformfield.">
That is how I catch it a the client side if they have JS enabled and on the
server if they do not. Respond to me off list if this does not make sense
and I can explain in more detail.
