Stupid Noob Question About Form Validation

Question

I can't get this code to work. Can some kind-hearted soul
look at it and tell me what stupid thing I'm doing wrong? It
processes the output of a contact or email form. The field "status"
is indeed defined on the form as a hidden field. When I enter
appropriate text in the fields of the form, it takes me to
"error.cfm" every time. Here's what I'm entering in the form for
testing purposes:
fromemail = [email protected]
yourname = Jack
phone = 407-755-0757
message = Message
Here's the code that processes the form output:
<cfset emailIndex = FindOneOf("@aeiou",
form.fromemail)>
<cfset nameIndex = FindOneOf("aeiou", form.yourname)>
<cfset phoneIndex = FindOneOf("123456789",form.phone)>
<cfset messageIndex = FindOneOf("aeiou",form.message)>
<!--- Check to see if the form was submitted. Also check
for valid data in each form field. --->
<cfif isDefined("form.status") AND form.status eq
"sendemail" AND emailIndex GT 1 AND nameIndex GT 1 AND phoneIndex
GT 1 AND messageIndex GT 1>
<!--- If the form was submitted, send the email! --->
<!-- NOTE: Hosting company email security requires that
the username, password, and server name be included in the
ColdFusion code. -->
<cfmail to="[email protected]"
from="[email protected]"
username="[email protected]"
password="correct_password_verified"
server="correct_server_verified"
replyto="#form.fromemail#"
subject="Email From website"
failto="[email protected]">
This message is from: #Form.yourname#, #form.fromemail#,
#form.phone#
#FORM.message#
</cfmail>
<cflocation url="success.cfm">
<cfelse>
<cflocation url="error.cfm">
</cfif>
The form is located at
http://www.GwenHarrison.com/contact/contactme.cfm.

Answer 1

The "error.cfm" only appears when the initial <cfif>
statements comes back as false. Meaning if it fails ANY of the
criteria it will go to "error.cfm".
1. What is "FORM.status" -- is that the submit button?
a. If
yes to above, then is "sendemail" the name of the submit
button?
2. Instead of doing "emailIndex GT 1 AND nameIndex GT 1 AND
phoneIndex GT 1 AND messageIndex GT 1" do this:
<cfif isDefined("FORM.status") and FORM.status eq
"sendemail" and isdefined("FORM.fromemail") and FORM.fromemail NEQ
"" and isdefined("FORM.yourname") and FORM.yourname NEQ "" and
isdefined("FORM.phone") and FORM.phone NEQ "" and
isdefined("FORM.message") and FORM.message NEQ "">
HI
<cfelse>
<cfdump var="#form#">
</cfif>
