-----Original Message----- From: Raymond Camden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 03, 2001 3:17 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Dynamic form fields First off, I don't know if CF willbe happy with form fields named with that syntax. I know PHP uses that syntax, but I can't promise it will work in CF... but... try it. :) Secondly, please, please, please do _not_ use Evaluate to get dynamic form fields. Remember that form fields are stored in a structure. You can rewrite #evaluate('form.name[#getids.id#]')# as: Form["name[#getids.ids#]"] Not only will the code be quicker, it will also be much easier to read. ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, Principal Spectra Compliance Engineer for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda > -----Original Message----- > From: Steven Dworman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, December 03, 2001 3:11 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Dynamic form fields > > > try > > #evaluate('form.name[#getids.id#]')# > > -----Original Message----- > From: Bruce, Rodney (Contractor) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, December 03, 2001 2:15 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Dynamic form fields > > > hello all > > Hope you can help with a little problem. > > I have on a field that is named using an id. > > On the form I have: > <CFQUERY name="getids"> > get ids > </CFQUERY> > > <CFOUTPUT query="getids"> > <INPUT type="text" name="name[#getids.id#]" value="#getids.id#"> > </CFOUTPUT> > > > On the action page I have: > <CFQUERY name="getids"> > get ids > </CFQUERY> > > > <CFOUTPUT> > #form.name[getids.id]# > </CFOUTPUT> > > I get "error resolving parameter form.name. > I can see all my form fields listed in the debugging info at > bottom of page. > i.e. > name[1] = 1 > name[2] = 2 > > What am I missing? > > Thanks all > Rodney > > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
