Well, this is interesting. I set up a very simple set of pages.
Test.cfm
cflayout type=tab
cflayoutarea name=test title=Test
cfform action=testResponse.cfm method=post
cfinput type=text name=test size=10
input type=submit /
/cfform
/cflayoutarea
/cflayout
testResponse.cfm
cfparam name=FORM.test default=
cfoutput#FORM.test#/cfoutput
cflocation url=testTarget.cfm?show=#FORM.test#
testTarget.cfm
cfparam name=URL.show default=
cfoutput#URL.show#/cfoutput
pI came here/p
When I enter some value in the input the program does indeed return to test.cfm
and my tab but prints everything from testTarget.cfm
The issue seems to be in how the form tag is processed by CF. I set up
another file, test2, using form tags instead of cfform
When you use cfform it's translated to:
form name=CFForm_1 id=CFForm_1 action=testResponse.cfm method=post
onsubmit=return ColdFusion.Ajax.checkForm(this, _CF_checkCFForm_1,'test')
Using form there is no translation/processing. It looks like the culprit is
the onsubmit statement. It works differently than
ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm(). The callback function for
ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm() returns everything on the target page including
tags, header info, etc. where this is showing only what I actually output - but
back into the cflayout area.
And this is where it **really** gets weird: Run the code (test.cfm not
test2.cfm) and what I see on the screen is my test tab and what I output in
testTarget.cfm - I see no input box or submit button. BUT, if you view the code
it's identical to the code before you do the submit. So where are the form
elements?
Some Ajax guru needs to help with this and tell us how you handle this. (I
suppose one possibiity is to never actually use a submit button but handle it
all with ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm(). )

Yes I do.
Just curious - do you end your processing page with cflocation ?
