For the date format, add a simple mask:
<cfinput type="datefield" label="Date Received" name="daterecd"required="Yes"
size="10" maxlength="10" message="Please enter the date theapplication was
received" validate="date" validateat="onsubmit,onServer" mask="dd/mm/yyyy">
You will, of course, still want to be sure it's in the proper format going into
your database, etc...
For the alert, call the following in the "onload" of your cfform:
<cfsavecontent variable="onLoad">
{
alert("Please Select a State" ,'Hey there, User:',mx.controls.Alert.OK);
}
</cfsavecontent>
<cfform format="flash" name="test" onload="#onLoad#"........................>
I'm not sure about the order of validation popups...sorry!
