Is there more code on the "screen2" page that sets the form variables to
the session variables?
Something like:
<cfset SESSION.fname = FORM.fname>
<cfset SESSION.lname = FORM.lname>
OR
<cfscript>
SESSION.fname = FORM.fname;
SESSION.lname = FORM.lname;
</cfscript>
Otherwise the session variables aren't being set.
