[KCFusion] Form fields a structure in CF5
We're running CF5 on NT. According to the docs, As of ColdFusion 5, Form, Application, Session, Server, Request, and URL variables are stored in structures. However when I try to retrieve form field information, I get error messages about not having a valid structure. I test my form (which only has three plain text input fields) with IsStruct and get False. Here's my code, which is only an adaptation of the example in the Allaire docs...

RE: [KCFusion] Form fields a structure in CF5
Well, I discovered this about 30 seconds before Daryl sent this message. Fieldnames is just that; a simple list of the names of the fields. When I try the last two suggestions using the default variable name for the form -- #form# -- then I get what I wanted. In fact CFDUMP even builds a groovy little table around the results. I'm really looking forward to the day when it's no longer true that the simple errors are the ones most likely to jump up and bite my hiney.

According to the docs, As of ColdFusion 5, Form, Application, Session, Server, Request, and URL variables are stored in structures. However when I try to retrieve form field information, I get error messages about not having a valid structure.
