>Why do you suggest using the StructKeyExists? Because it is the most efficient way to check if the Form scope contains the Name field.

You should use either StructKeyExists or cfparam to ensure you have these fields, otherwise you will get an error when the page is accessed directly. Another issue that the validation can easily be bypassed with just a space. If you trim() the fields you ensure that you at least have some content (even if you don't have full name validation). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
