Looking for some input on a problem I ran into creating a Facebook app on OpenBD GAE.
Facebook pulls the content for your app from your server and displays it in Facebook. When they make a request to your server, they post some form fields so that your server knows how to react. The form fields that facebook posts cause a problem because coldfusion automatically tries to validate the form fields based on the form field names. The problem has been documented here: http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2007/9/21/Fixing-the-Facebook-Problem-and-why-one-ColdFusion-feature-needs-to-die The work around is to rename one of the form fields before coldfusion tries to validate them by putting the following code in Application.cfc <cfif structKeyExists(form, "FB_SIG")> <cfset form.FB_SIG_FIX = form.FB_SIG> <cfset form.FB_SIG = ''> </cfif> This works in Adobe CF, but it did not work on OpenBD GAE. My question is: Is there a way to rename a formfield if it exists before OpenBD does its validation? Or is there a way to turn off this validation in OpenBD GAE?
