CFLOOP, another way?

2003-03-24 Thread Javadeveloper123
Hi,

When you use the cfhttp tag to post information to a web page, at the same time as you 
are using the cfloop tag, the page will submit the wrong number of variables to the 
page depending on which iteration you are going through in the loop. For example, if 
you are on the second iteration of the loop, the page will post two sets of variables, 
if you are on the third iteration it will submit three sets of variables. I’m not 
sure why. It may be a problem with one of the cf tags, or a problem that occurs when 
the two tags interact. I'm not sure if there is another possible way to perform the 
same functionality as the cfloop, iteration, without using the cfloop tag or maybe 
there is another possible solution to this? 

Here is an example of the problem.

CFLOOP INDEX = n FROM = 1 TO = 2


CFHTTP METHOD = POST URL = 
http://www.computing.surrey.ac.uk/cgi-bin/R.Peel/getpost.pl; PATH = c:\ FILE = 
result#n#.html

CFHTTPPARAM TYPE = FORMFIELD NAME = user VALUE = hello
CFHTTPPARAM TYPE = FORMFIELD NAME = 'product VALUE = product1

/CFHTTP

/CFLOOP

The url above submits two variables to a page. This page tells you what variables were 
submitted. Two files are generated. In the first it shows that one set of variables 
were submitted. In the second “result2.html” it shows that two sets of variables 
were submitted. I think if I can find another way to perform a loop, I will not have 
to use these two tags together, but there may be another solution.

I haven't run into this problem, but it seems to me that you may be able to
avoid the problem by putting your CFHTTP stuff in a custom tag (or CFC, in
CFMX), then looping over that.

Yup, I've hit that problem. See my blog for a possible solution
