coldfusion flash integration: I have been trying to adapt parts of the Real Estate example (not the Flash
Remoting part yet) to a Flash form that includes an onClick event attached to a
cfinput.

<cfformgroup type="vertical" label="Account Step:">
<cfinput type="text" readonly="yes"
value="#URL.IN_account_no#" name="ACCOUNT_NO" label="Account Number"
size="9">
<cfinput type="datefield" readonly="yes"
value="#URL.IN_STARTDATE#" name="STARTDATE" label="Start Date" size="10">
<cfinput type="datefield" readonly="no"
value="#URL.IN_ENDDATE#" name="ENDDATE" label="End Date" size="10">
<cfformgroup type ="horizontal" label="Responsible Party">
<cfinput type="Radio" name="Select_responsible" VALUE="APPLICANT">
<cfinput type="Radio" name="Select_responsible" VALUE="MEA">
<cfinput type="Radio" name="Select_responsible" VALUE="STAFF">
</cfformgroup>
<cfselect
name = "Select_remark"
query = "remarksRet"
label = "Select a Task"
display = "REMARKS"
Value = "REMARKS"
required = "Yes"
Selected = "">
</cfselect>
<cftextarea readonly="no"
value="#URL.IN_COMMENTS#" name="COMMENTS" label="Comments"
height="100" width="400" maxlength="255" />
<cfformgroup type ="horizontal">
<cfinput type="button" name="Submit" VALUE="Save"
onClick="Update_step()">
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>

I place Update_step() in a cfformitem.

<cfformitem type="script">
function Update_step()
{
var varsuccess = "No";
var updateArguments = {};
updateArguments.in_account_no = ACCOUNT_NO.text;
updateArguments.in_startdate = dateFormat(STARTDATE.text);
updateArguments.in_enddate = dateFormat(ENDDATE.text);
updateArguments.in_responsible = Select_responsible.selectedData;
updateArguments.in_remarks = Select_remark.selectedItem.data;
updateArguments.in_comments = COMMENTS.text;
varsuccess = application.Mycaselist.Update_account_step();
return varsuccess;
}

function dateFormat(sDate:String):String {
var sYear = substring(sDate,7,4);
var nMonth = Number(substring(sDate,1,2));
var sDay = substring(sDate,4,2);
var abbrevMonth:Array =
["JAN","FEB","MAR","APR","MAY","JUN","JUL","AUG","SEP","OCT","NOV","DEC"];
return (sDay+"-"+abbrevMonth[nMonth-1]+"-"+sYear);
}
</cfformitem>

Update_step() does not "see" my cfinput controls, or I am not passing them
correctly. Should I use cfsavecontent instead?

Try and set

function Update_step()

to be

Making the function worked. Also I had to make a number of changes to make the
flash remoting work--like recognizing that I had to restart the Coldfusion
service every time I changed one of the in-memory CFCs.

Thank you.
