Empty structure when form is submitted?


we using cf8 on w2003.

 

we have form being used on our intranet.

  • user submits form.
  • page specified in form's action attribute fails, because form variables empty.
  • if dump form, see structure empty.

 

more details:

 

  • in ie, fails when url uses 'typical' host name myhost.mydomain.mysuffix (e.g. fubar.xyz.pdq./somefile.cfm)
  • in ie, succeeds when using common name (fubar/somefile.cfm), or host name includes our active directory domain (fubar.adn.xyz.pdq/somefile.cfm)
  • we using application.cfm.
  • the same files work on our development server

 

 

happens in ie. firefox behaves properly, regardless of how host specified.

 

even more puzzling our existing production app worked until few days ago. , our inspections have shown no changes either our cf code of cf server settings.

any chance data in url (i.e. get) scope?

 

if form tag in html has 'method="get"' data not going in form scope going in url scope.

 

a more insidous way can happen through redirect.  if browser makes request of urla goes web server configured redirect urlb.  when redirect done post data turned data in request.

 

if not, have dig deeper.
