i hate to keep on beating a dead horse, but in CFMX7, you just use <cfform
instead of <form and have <cfinput name="whatever" label="whatever"
validate="numeric"  ....   and it takes care of it for you.  They CANT enter
anything but numbers in there.

However since you're not using CFMX7 you can use a javascript validation
routine to disallow submitting the form unless there's only numeric in that
field.    or you can allow them to submit it and use REReplace to strip out
all but 0-9  on the server side in your action page.
