<scenario>
I am passing variables whose names are created dynamically to another page
via a form submission. On the second page I am recreating the form names
using the same method I used to create them on the first page.
<cfset patvar = "##" & "form.#getit.tagname#id" & "##"> -> this is used
to add the #form. and id# to a value that is created dynamically.
</scenario>
<problem stress="high">
The issue I am having is that when I try to do an insert or an update and
try to set one of my fields to #patvar# it puts #form.feildnameid# (where
feildname is a dynamically created value pulled from my database) into the
database not the value of #form.feildnameid#. Have tried using the
evaluate function that has not worked for me. I have tried with quotes and
without quotes. I am about at the end of my rope.
I appreciate any help any one can give.
</problem>
