Passing multiple values to another page

Question

I am somewhat new to Coldfusion 9 in a IIS platform through Dreamweaver CS4 and could use some direction.  I am working on a form where someone has submited a request for approval.  The user has requested a bulk approval button for all users that fall under certain filter conditions to do a mass approve ( setting the value to 1).  I have not been able to either pass the values to the current approval method or approve them on the existing page.  Below is the coding for the page as I have it.
After the filter has applied I need to get the values of the #qRecords.VR_Machine_Participant_Activity_Login_ID# and have them all approve as apposed to doing them individually which they are doing now.  I have looked at several methods, but they are not meeting my needs.  Some information cut for space but left the form action.
<form name="form1" method="post">
    <table width="996" border="1">
     <tr class="ReportColumnHeadingSmall">
      <td width="150">Approval Needed</td>
      <td width="100">Approved</td>
                        <td width="180">Business Unit</td>                    
     </tr>
     <tr class="data0Small">
      <td>
       <select name="cboApprovalRequired" class="smallFont">

          <cfif vApprovalRequired eq 1>
            selected
          </cfif>
         </cfif>
        >True</option>
                 <option value="0"
         <cfif isDefined("vApprovalRequired")>
          <cfif vApprovalRequired eq 0>

Answer 1

I suggest displaying all the potential approvees as checked checkboxes.  The user can then uncheck as many as he wants.
