The CFSCRIPT approach almost works -
Script output is
<CFSCRIPT>
dir = #walkdir#;
WriteOutput(dir);
</CFSCRIPT>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden"
NAME="dirname"
VALUE="#dir#">
This writes the current value to the current screen - good
This does not pass the value to the input field as #dir# - bad
Therefore no passing to the next page. The problem is probably due to
CFSCRIPT being executed on the server just like CF vs JS on the client.
Other suggestions?

Try using <CFSCRIPT> instead of <SCRIPT>
This will allow you to access CF variables in your script.
