It is easier to do this with checkbox fields, because you can simply loop
through the field name var in your action page as it will become a comma
delimited list. You can's use cfinput, you'll have to use regular form
fields. If you insist on using radio buttons I think you could do something
like this:
in the form page:
<cfouput query = "employees>
<cfinput name = "mybtn_#emp_id# ....>
</cfouput>
in the action page:
<cfloop list = "fieldnames" index = "my_field">
<cfif ListFirst(my_field) eq "mybtn">
<cfquery name = update_emp>
UPDATE Employees
SET EmpStatus = '#Evaluate(my_field)#'
WHERE Emp_ID = #ListLast(my_field)#
</cfquery>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
