Hi Henry,
What you likely want to do is let the action page decide which SQL template to use,
not the form page.. Here's a quick example (not debugged):
(form template):
<select name="action" size="1">
<option value="add">Add Record
<option value="update">Update Record
<option value="delete">Delete Record
</select>
(action template)
<cfswitch expression="#form.action#">
<cfcase value="add">
<cfinclude template="add_widget_sql.cfm">
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="update">
<cfinclude template="update_widget_sql.cfm">
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="delete">
<cfinclude template="delete_widget_sql.cfm">
</cfcase>
<cfdefaultcase>
Error - Invalid action passed
</cfdefaultcase>
</cfswitch>
Quick n' dirty example, but it should give yuo an idea of the concept.
Take Care,
Seth
