Can anyone help me with this?
I have an onChange function that refreshes my coldfusion page and puts the
new ID in the URL and then the SQL uses this ID to get certain information
from the database. But when it refreshes with the new ID I lose any changed
data in the form... any suggestions?

A couple of ideas:
1) Use Ajax, I can't help you here, but I'm pretty sure it could be used for
this kind of thing.
2) Use the form.submit() function to submit the form, rather then
self.location. Then your action logic will have access to all the data
currently in the form. It could

Any ideas?
I just have very broad ideas without knowing your requirements in more detail.
In your filter function that is called from the select's onChange event, change
the action property of the form to a page that handles the ID logic, restores
the current state of the form, and returns
Ok, Thanks for all your help. I have it working now. Thank you.

Hi Ben. Thanks for your response. One question:
What about just signaling the page to SUBMIT rather than REFRESH and set
some sort of hidden field flag to tell the processing page NOT to
process the form, but just to let it refresh with the same form data.
This will allow the form to keep
At the point that you click the link that opens the popup, pass the form
fields to the spawned child window. Save the original form data within a
hidden form on the popup. When you submit the popup, have the popup form
submit back to the originating form. This will allow you to detect for the
At the point that you click the link that opens the popup, pass the form
fields to the spawned child window.
Can you tell me how you are doing this? What I mean to say is, how does the
link recognize the form values? The only way I can get the form field values
recognized is if I use input
Well, the popup has a parent object. It has a reserved object just for the
page that spawned it. It is called opener.
So you could do, opener.forms[0].field.value from the pop up and then
assisgn it to a local hidden form field.
You can do most everything with the opener object that you could

Andrew,
I had a similar situation. The way I did it is a) set up the
parent form to pull the field values from session vars (I use a
home-grown formBean); b) when the popup window is called, first
use Ajax to pass the parent's field values to a routine on the
server which stores then into

I think you guys are making this way too complicated. Take a look at
this:
cfparam name=FORM.allow_refresh type=numeric default=0 /
cfparam name=FORM.submitted type=numeric default=0 / cfparam
name=FORM.name type=string default= /

Got a form with a list of rows coming from a database. User enteres new
data, then realizes he needs to add a row to this form. User click sa
hyperlink to do just that - and a popup window opens for him to add a
row. User closes the popup window after successful addition, and form
must refresh
