on display page...

<cfif mygroup1 IS "show message1">
Message 1
<cfelseif mygroup1 IS "show message2">
Message 1
</cfif>

if you are sure "mygroup1" is going to post... this puts less load on server

<cfswitch expression="mygroup1">
<cfcase value="show message1">
Message 1
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="show message2">
Message 2
</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
