Hello everyone.
How do you handle processing dynamic forms?
Here is my example code:
<CFQUERY name="equipment" datasource="DSN">
SELECT ID, Category, Item
FROM Equipment
ORDER BY ID
</CFQUERY>
<HTML>
<BODY>
<FORM METHOD="post" action="ActionPage.cfm" >
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD CLASS="title" WIDTH="141" HEIGHT="13">ID</TD>
<TD CLASS="title" WIDTH="141" HEIGHT="13">Category</TD>
<TD CLASS="title" WIDTH="248" HEIGHT="13">Item</TD>
<TD CLASS="title" WIDTH="91" HEIGHT="13">Quantity
</TD>
</TR>
<CFOUTPUT query="equipment">
<TR>
<TD CLASS="text" HEIGHT="5">#equipment.ID#</TD>
<TD CLASS="text" HEIGHT="5">#equipment.category#</TD>
<TD CLASS="text" HEIGHT="5">#equipment.item#</TD>
<TD CLASS="text" HEIGHT="5">
<INPUT type="text" name="Item_#id#" SIZE="5" WIDTH="10" value=""
CLASS="monospace">
</TD>
</TR>
</CFOUTPUT>
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
This code will generate a form with over 150 text boxes. The user
should be able to order more than one item.
Any suggestions on a clever way to process this form would be greatly
appreciated.
I would hate to hard code Item_1, Item_2, Item_3.....Item_150.
Thanks in advance.
