Well, there's a relatively easy way.
If you use the same name for all the checkbox elements, the result (on your
action page) will be a comma-delimited list of values; if you use the e-mail
address as the value for the checkboxes, you're done. (You may have to
replace the comma delimiter with a semi-colon for a list of mail addresses;
if so, use ListChangeDelims to do that.)

Subject: Sending dynamic data to template
Dear List:
I am writing an application that allows users to upload files to a server.
When a file is uploaded, email notifications are sent to a group of selected
recipients. The user uploading the file can select the individuals they want
notified by choosing from a list of potential recipients. Checkboxes are
used to select recipients and the list of recipients is built dynamically
and will change frequently over the course of a project.
Here is my problem, how do I build the list of selected recipients to send
to a template for processing and how do I handle it when it arrives? I have
been reading about Cold Fusion data structures and the like, but am unsure
of how to proceed.
I would like to submit the chosen recipients to a form to process and then
send out the emails. Since the list is built dynamically, how do I do this.
Hard coding the recipient names as variables in the processing template is
not possible. I need to build an array or list of selected recipients, but
do not know how.
Is there a clean way (right now I would settle for any way) to do this?
Thanks,
Brian Ivey
