Question
cfform action page
When I first enter my form, thru a mainmenu, I pass it a
url.edit_flag = "No'. When the form is entered (returned) from
another form, I pass it a url.edit_flag = "Yes". Basically, what I
wan to do is perform an insert in the action page when the form is
first enetered (No) and perform an edit/update when the form is
returned from another form (Yes).
So if the flag is "yes', I want to perform one action (add) and if the flag is "no" I want to perform another action (edit). This is what I have :
<cfif url.edit_flag is "No">
<cfform action="add_action.cfm" method="post">
<cfelseif url.edit_flag is "Yes">
<cfform action="edit_action.cfm" method="post">
</cfif>
However, it does not like this. I get an errory saying my closing </cfform> needs a starting <cfform>,so it appeears both conditions fail. If I just have one form action, the page works.
Is is possible to do what I am trying to do, and if yes, what am I doing wrong ?
