submission page isn't getting any form data.  
<cfform action="submit.cfm?func=new" method="post" name="perf_form"

I am not really familiar yet with regular expressions. Can anyone help me how
to check on a string pattern? I want to check a string if it has this pattern:

It seems to me that datediff only calculates difference between two dates. How about time?
Pls kindly advise.

I'm trying to use ExpandPath to set destination and source attributes in cffile.

I get "Connection Failure" when I try to use CFHTTP on a MX server. the same
code  works perfectly on version 7 .
I see the same problem in the threads, but no solutions yet! the encoding tag
is not working either.

I have the following values and would like to convert them to numeric only:
eg.
(86)1234-1234 => 8612341234        ; non numeric characters
(1) 1234 1234 => 112341234           ; remove spaces

Can someone show me how to reproduce this with a CFLOOP? I can't seem to get
past the dynamic variable naming. Thanks!
<CFSET colorid1_1 = ListFirst(colorid1)>
<CFSET colorid1_2 = ListGetAt(colorid1, '2')>

How can I take the value of cgi.REMOTE_ADDR and get the domain name?
Right now I'm passing cgi.REMOTE_ADDR to a processing form and adding that

well.

In an earlier post, it was pointed out to me that for the destination
attribute of a CFFILE, I must use absolute addressing or the temp file of
coldfusion. Now, if I do this what happens when I load my code onto a remote
server? I am thinking I would loose the location of my ...
