I have been running into an issue with not being able to read across forms
on a site I am working on.  The site is set up so that instead of using
cfinclude, they address pages as custom tags (ie header.cfm is called as
<cf_header url_val="xx">.  The basic setup is there is an index.cfm that
acts like a driver page that calls the "tags" and the called pages may also
call "tags" as well.  We have a dropdown to select with all of the
properties or an individual property (Hotel properties).  We are adding the
ability for the hotels, if they take this into account, count the number of
infants.  This form field (itself a dropdown) is in a different form that is
physically located in a different file (which is the parent page that is
calling the file that the above dropdown live on).  In the rendered html and
javascript, the property section comes before the form that has the number
of infants.  What I am trying to accomplish is that when I change the hotel
property, I want it to check against a session var that determines whether
or not that property does an infant count and check a hidden form field to
see if the value of infants is greater than 0.  The problem I am having is
that the hidden field that I have in the form isn't showing up.  Does this
have something to do with the fact that pages are being used as custom tags?
I have never seen a site structured like this.it's pretty unique and not a
bad idea, but I am wondering what effects on how variables are available to
other tags/pages this structure has.

 

Here's the basic structure:

 

Index.cfm calls call_index.cfm as <cf_call_index.cfm>..call_index.cfm calls
call_index2.cfm as <cf_call_index2>.  Form 1 with the property dropdown
physically resides on call_index2.cfm and form 2 that has the infant count
dropdown physically resides on call_index.cfm.

 

 

Anyone have an experience dealing with this kind of structure?

 

Eric
