Hi Kevin,
You say that the webservice is listed in the CFADMIN? I'd try deleting it

cf has built-in cfform fields validation. you can invoke the built-in
client-side validation by using VALIDATE attribute of cfinput tags,
possibly in conjunction with some other attributes, like PATTERN if you

Also, see if maybe CF is escaping any of those quotes in those CF variables.
