I have creatred a CFFORM and if I don't enter anything into any field it still
passes me on to the action form.  Have made many forms before and I am driving
myself crazy trying to see the difference why this one is not working.

<CFQUERY NAME="get_states" DATASOURCE="#DATASOURCE#">
    Select *
    FROM states
</CFQUERY>
<html>
<head>
<title>New User</title>
<link href="arial.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

</head>

<body>
<CFFORM ACTION="newuser_insert.cfm" NAME="addUser" METHOD="POST">

  <table width="75%" border="0" cellpadding="5">

Do you know if your server has the cfform.js and masks.js files available to
your app? If not, the form checking will fail and move on to the next page. I
had this happen and wasn't able to access the web server to add the two .js
files. I copied them to my application script folder and linked them in my
header template. Not sure if that'll help you or not but it could be the issue.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"  
src="scripts/cfform.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="scripts/masks.js"></script>

Just add a link to those files that are normally in the 'scripts' folder in
cfide in your page header.

Just like JoeNK2K said:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="scripts/cfform.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="scripts/masks.js"></script>
