Iuse the following to set and run a scheduled task:
<cfschedule
action="UPDATE"
task="#FORM.TaskName#"
operation="HTTPRequest"
url="#CompleteURL#"
startdate="#FORM.StartDate#"
starttime="#FORM.StartTime#"
enddate="#FORM.EndDate#"
endtime="#FORM.EndTime#"
interval="#FORM.Interval#"
RequestTimeout="#FORM.RequestTimout#"
>
As you can see, all the input is from a form (I set today's date and
time as the default starting date and time & blank as the end time
Runs on CF 4.5
