Hi-
I copied your form code and submitted the variables back to
that page, and got no error, for what that's worth. My guess is
that the prob. might be in the page you're submitting to rather
than in the form itself?

Hello,
I just created a CF Flash Form and it works fine. BUT I have
to do an extra click to access my flash form.
How do I get rid of this extra click?
Is there any special script that I should be pasting into my
code?
Any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks in advance.Looks like you are seeing the EOLAS problem with IE
either upgrade to CF7.0.2

How to validate date fields in the flash form
i want to validate the date fields to make sure the values
are not greater than today's date and from-date is less than or
equal to to-date in the flash form. Does the actionscript have a CF
DateDiff function for the validatation?
ThanksI finally (after much reading up on actionscript) figured out
my problem with date validation...which was similar to yours...

Flash Forms Not Rendering in IE7, Flash 9
We're having a problem with flash forms in IE7 and Flash
Player 9 not rendering the entire form. The form works fine in
Firefox 2. It looks to be a problem with how the Flash player is
able to pull back data in IE7. Likely this pertains to how IE7
handles security of plug-ins.
Oddly, we've noticed that uninstalling the Flash 9 player and
then reinstalling results in the form rendering correctly the first
time, but on subsequent views the form no longer renders correctly.
Specifically, we're not seeing data that is being called via
Flash remoting in cfselect tags (state and country information).
And we're not seeing text rendered that is in cfformitem tags. Our
dev url is:
http://hopeequity.beaconfire.com/loggedout/index.cfm?event=StartInvesting_StartAGroupStep1
If anyone has an idea of why IE7 might not be able to render
the form correctly, or might have security-related issues with
remoting and Flash 9, please reply.I was granted access to the manuals on our prod server (the
site is set up where you have to log in to see the manuals). The
manuals are behaving differently on the prod server than in our dev
server. The following is happening on the prod server:
- the flash menus are appearing on our prod server in FireFox
only.
- I had reported in our dev area that when I right clicked on
the left hand side where the menus are to appear in IE that the
Flash menu displayed. This is not the case in our production area.
- I get the "This page contains both secure and nonsecure
items" when viewing the site on our prod server through IE
I've asked them what version of RoboHelp they are using and
no one seems to know. It seems they don't regenerate their help
files (manuals) very often. -
I have just about given up on flash forms. I have read just
about every thread in this Forum, but cannot find the answer.
Have worked with flash forms in the past, but after recently
upgraded to a new box with Vista Business and Codl Fusion 8 Dev
Edition I cannot get flash forms working. I have have seen a tonne
of postings with the same issue, but few with a resolution, and
where there is I try it and makes no difference.
If I run the following code:
<cfform format="flash">
<cfinput type="dateField" name="startDate" label="Start
Date:" mask="dd/mm/yyyy">
</cfform>
If I remove format="flash" form works fine. If I include
format="flash" form doesn't display. View source shows the code
there, CFIDE is mapping correctly etc.
One thing I do notice though, which may or may not be
involved is that when viewing the code generated, it is looking in
the same folder that the script that includes the form was in. Do I
need to tell it to look somewhere else? Pure speculation here, but
EVERYTHING else checks out.
If someone at Adobe can set this straight would be great,
because an afternoon spent reading other postings on this matter
shows there are clearly a lot of people stumbling around in the
dark on this one.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.Michael --
Thanks for your help.
I think I've narrowed the problem down -- it's not that it
won't display my flash form in IE, it's that it won't display it in
a Fusebox environment. I'm going to poke over at their site to see
what they have to say -- I suspect I'll need to upgrade the version
of Fusebox that I'm using. :) -
OK, I am trying to get my flash form to work and I'm working
with a template from FLASH MX BIBLE. I'm going to paste both my
action script and my cgi script in here & hopefully I can find
an answer to why it doesn't work. Basically what happens is it says
it was received, but it wasn't. ... or it is but none of the words
come through (this happened earlier before I tried tweeking the
script... which I think made it worse).
........ thank you thank you to anyone who can help meHi kglad. One. not sure how to "use the onData event of
receiveLoad and see what error message you're getting." Sorry,
don't use as2 very much. Two. I am doing all this on the same
domain, so there should not be any security issues.
I asked goDaddy what the problem might be and this was their
(snarky) reply;
"As you have already been informed, when using a flash form
on your site, in the scripting for the form you will need to
reference our SMTP server at relay-hosting.secureserver.net and
this server does not require authentication."
They gave me this code a couple of days ago and told me to
stick this into my PHP code. It didn't help.
This is beyond me I am afraid. -
Just upgraded from CF MX 6 to MX 7. Trying out flash forms,
but they are not working.
I tried out a simple First Name, Last name, Submit form
setting the form to flash. When viewing the page in Safari, Firefox
on a Mac and IE in Windows the page is blank. If I set take out the
flash tag and just leave it as a CFForm it shows perfectly in all
browsers. All browsers are able to view flash and shockwave files.
Not sure what is going on.
Any ideas?
Thanks.I am having the exact same issue. I have tried tutorial code
from several sites. I have added a name to my form. I checked to
make sure my CFIDE directory is mapped in my CFADMIN. I don't know
what else to try. Right now I have the exact same code for testing
as mishuno has. If i remove the type attribute I see a form. If I
add back in "format="flash"" I don;t see anything on the screen but
I do see flash code in the page source. HELP!!!!
<CFFORM width="500" name="testForm">
<cfinput type="text" name= "firstname" label="First
Name">
<cfinput type="text" name="lastname" label="Last Name">
<cfinput type="submit" name="submit" value="save">
</CFFORM>
I think I found the issue just now but I am not sure how to
change it. Although I have a CFIDE mapping ( /CFIDE set to:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE ) set up in my CFadmin, my application.log
is showing the following error:
quote:
File not found: /CFIDE/scripts/cfformhistory.cfm The specific
sequence of files included or processed is:
C:\Data\users\dev.myservername.com\CFIDE\scripts\cfformhistory.cfm
So the flash is looking in the wrong place for the form
related files (which are in my CFIDE folder in the correct
location)
Anybody know what I need to change on my server??

I've created a set of flash forms. It's place in flash as a
movie. Approximately 7 frames.
As the forms have been created with the excepetion of the
send button, I would like to know how to create the submit button
and send text ( placed in either form) to my email address.
I'm using flash and macromedia. I do know it's simplistic to
create the forms in Dreamweaver, however, I need the movie style.Found the answer...
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=d9734ed8&sliceId=1
It is also an issue on IIS 6. -
I'm creating a Flash Form and I have a group of 4 checkboxes,
and the value part of the input statement is as follows:
<cfif
Isdefined('Form.whatever1')>1<cfelse>1</cfif>
<cfif
Isdefined('Form.whatever2')>1<cfelse>1</cfif>
<cfif
Isdefined('Form.whatever3')>1<cfelse>1</cfif>
<cfif
Isdefined('Form.whatever4')>1<cfelse>1</cfif>
But when I submit the record, all of the checkboxes are
recorded as "1", even if none of them or some of them are checked.
Has anyone developed a flash form with checkboxes and experienced
similar issues?
Thanks...Oh, forgot to mention that I used the same code in a
"regular" form, and it worked. Just curious as to if this is a
known Flash Form problem -
Has anyone seen a workable fix with regard to the Eolas
problem. For those unfamiliar, I'm referring to the box around all
Flash content requiring the user to click before they can interact
with the form.
I'm particularly interested in the fix for Flash Forms in
ColdFusion. I have MX7 installed. I have a JS script for
movies...but to date, nothing works for Flash Forms.Have you tried CFMX 702 updater? That has a fix for EOLAS
issue.
More details at:
http://www.asfusion.com/blog/entry/eolas-fix-for-coldfusion-flash-forms -
OK, I need help. I've just started using flash forms, and I
love them. But, I have a problem. In this example I have cfinput
boxes a, b, and c. After the user adds data to a and b, I use
javascript to subtract b from a and insert the value into c, using
onchange="subtractme();" in the b tag. Problem is, the form never
loads. What am I doing wrong?
<script language="javascript">
function subtractMe1() {
document.cool.c.value=Math.round(document.cool.a.value -
document.cool.b.value);
</script>
<cfform name="cool" format="flash">
<cfinput type="text" name="a" width="60" >
<cfinput type="text" name="b" width="60"
onChange="subtractMe1();">
<cfinput type="text" name="c" width="60">
</cfform>On Linux or Unix, you may need to create a symlink to cfide
directory as CFIDE (case sensitive) in your web directory. Have
your host issue the following command.
ln -s /path/to/web/dir/cfide CFIDE
Additionally, Firefox 1.5 loads Rich Flash forms fine on my
OSX running Panther 10.3.9.

'nowrap' available in flash forms?
When using formgroup=hbox,horizontal,hdividedbox
I'm still having issues with the page not forcing
horizontal-ness. Instead of a dynamic scroll bar or something, as
you drag to shrink a page, the form widgets stack themselves, as
though they were in a table cell that did not have nowrap set. Is
there a way to always force the nowrap notion in flash
forms?Since you requested advice, mine is to use html forms.
I gotta say I agree. With JQuery being as mature as it is now, I don't see a very good case for Flash-based forms.
Bianca, do you have a reason for wanting to use Flash forms? If nothing else, you will be preventing anyone who uses IOS from using said forms. I say Apple users bring this sort of thing on themselves, but - rightly or wrongly - they do represent an increasing chunk of the browser market.

Hello, all.
The issues are just appearing out of the woodworks, now.
The project I am working on (
http://www.goldininstitute.org/staging_directory/)
now has yet another issue - in IE6, the flash form does not load at
all. It's supposed to be in the lower left corner - a login form,
just username and password with a submit button - and works great
in FF/NN/Op, but does not appear at all in IE6. Is this another
security issue for IE? Form code follows:

Flash Forms Stopped Working In ColdFusion 9
We moved our websites, many of which use Flash Forms, from a server running ColdFusion 7 to a server running ColdFusion 9.
At first all the Flash Forms in the various websites worked fine.
However, on the same day all the Flash Forms stopped working on the ColdFusion 9 server. No changes were made to the websites, to IIS 6, or to ColdFusion. We've restarted ColdFusion, IIS 6, and the server.
The error we get when loading a page that includes a Flash Form is:
412 Unknown
Here is the output reported by FireBug when loading a page (for example http://www.futurefamilydocs.org/test/testflashforms/index.cfm) that includes a Flash Form
The same page with the same flash form works fine in our ColdFusion 7 server (for example see: http://test.futurefamilydocs.org/test/testflashforms/index.cfm)
We cannot figure out what the issue is. Both servers are setup exactly the same Windows 2003, IIS 6, same ColdFusion settings, same access rights for internet users.
We'd appreciate any help as it will be significant work for use to change all the Flash Forms to normal forms. We're a small non-profit company and this is having a big impact on our members until we get it fixed or replace all the Flash Forms.
Thank You
Bruce PhillipsWe have found the error message coldfusion is generating when we try to access a page that has a flash form:
C:\ColdFusion9\runtime\logs\coldfusion-event.log
03/29 13:02:45 user CFSwfServlet: Error: The class 'mx.rpc.RemoteClassRelayResponder' could not be loaded.
03/29 13:02:45 user CFSwfServlet: at C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\futurefamilydocs\test\testflashforms\inde.mxml:393
I researched that error and found suggestions to redo the IIS configuration for ColdFusion. I did that but still get the same error. -
