Why not have two submit buttons.. one is named "continue", and one is named
"cancel". If on the cf page receiving the post from this form, it sees a
formfield named "cancel" it does on thing.. if it sees a formfield named
"continue", it does another.
That seems pretty simple, and wouldn't require any special JS, etc...

Subject: Continue processing form based on user input
Can someone suggest the best approach to "cancel or continue with" form
processing based on user input?
The scenario is:
-form submitted
-possible duplicate record detected in "action" poage
-ask user whether to proceed with processing
--if user says "yes" then continue processing form variables in the "action"
page
--if user says "no" cancel form processing and throw up an information
screen.
I have been playing around with several Javascript approaches to doing this,
but I don't now JS all that well. Is there a CF way to do it, keeping in
mind that I need to maintain my form variables if the user wishes to
proceed.
Can someone suggest a good approach, CF or otherwise, to this problem?
TNX.
