Imagine Robert what spammers could do if all you needed to do was view a site and they had your e-mail ;-) Cheers On Tue, 2011-06-14 at 14:23 -0400, Orlini, Robert wrote: > OK Thanks Ben and Guust. > > RO > > -Original Message- > From: "Ben Forta" > Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2011 2:21pm > To: "cf-talk" > Subject: RE: email from variable? > > > Web browsers don't just tell the server the user email address because a > form was filled in.

OK Thanks Ben and Guust. RO -Original Message- From: "Ben Forta" Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2011 2:21pm To: "cf-talk" Subject: RE: email from variable? Web browsers don't just tell the server the user email address because a form was filled in.

Re: email from variable?
If the user has entered their email address in a form, there are two potential ways to get it. If the form has method of "POST", the email address will be in the FORM scope of the action page. If the form has a method of "GET", the email address will be in the URL scope.

RE: email from variable?
Web browsers don't just tell the server the user email address because a form was filled in. You need to ask for it in your form (or have a login page before it and know who the logged in user is and have that information perhaps in a profile). --- Ben -Original Message- From: Orlini, Robert [mailto:rorl...@hwwilson.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2011 2:16 PM To: cf-talk Subject: email from variable?

Re: email from variable?
Only if you asked the user to provide his/her email address. There is no way ColdFusion (or any other technology) can know this by itself.
