[thelist] CF: No IsDefined()?

[Joshua Olson]

Ray, I think I can field this question.

<cfparam name="form.SubmitButton" default="">

<cfif FindNoCase("*******", form.SubmitButton)>
  .. whatever
</cfif>

Replace the ******* with the "value" of the submit button and you are good
to go.  The added benefit is that you are now sure that the request came off
a submittal AND you know that the button clicked had the correct "value".

If you use graphical buttons, use this logic:

<cfif StructKeyExists(form, "*****.x")>
  ... whatever
</cfif>

Where the ***** is the "value" of the image submit.

HTH,

: Ray,

: If you prefer not to use the IsDefined() function, how do you go
: about triggering certain processes such as the following:
:
: <cfif IsDefined("Form.SubmitButton")>
:
:    <cfdo="SomethingOrOther">
:
: </cfif>
:
: If you mean that you don't like to use it instead of correctly
: initializing variables to begin with, I understand.
