scope_merge.cfmand add the following code:<cfif isDefined("form.firstname")> <cfdump eval=FORM> <cfdump eval=URL> </cfif> <form action="scope_merge.cfm?name=Wilhelm&test=5" method="post"> <input type="Hidden" name="firstname" value="John"> <input type="Hidden" name="Name" value="Doe"> <input type="Submit"> </form>2. This code creates a form that will submit and create
FORMvariables that are hidden, as well asURLvariables.3. When we call this template, by going to
