here's another idea. IF there is an error, do a CFABORT, AND a CFinclude a
certain template. This template will be designed like the first page that
had the forms, except, the input fields will be given values. so whatever
values are present will be in those input fields (it might be painstaking
work with 110 form fields, unless they were created dynamically). now
ain't that clever. its pretty cool i dont have to click the back button, it
just reappears on the next page if something goes wrong. i love CFincludes!

Subject: Form Fields cleared on Back
Im going nuts trying to figure this one out, I have a form with about 110
fields (ya i know), there is lots of server side validation, if an input
error occurs I CFABORT and give the user a JavaScript back button to go back
an correct the input. On some users PC the form gets cleared on other PC's
it does not. I also use some of the CF built in validation (_required) so
the user has to use the browser back button, same thing happens on some of
these peoples browsers. Of coarse it does not happen on mine. I setup a
few test forms for the problems users and it things work ok. These users
are all using IE 5.x, any one else have such problems, could it be the large
number of INPUT fields? any browser settings? registry settings? Voodoo
dances? anything?
Thanks,Adrian
