Dynamic Radio Button disappears when linked back to page - coldfusion

I have radio buttons on one page that clear when linked back to the page. I want to make sure they remain checked. The problem here is that they are dynamic, which I am not used to. There is a loop that may loop up to 5 times.
This is what I have tried for it to be dynamic:
<cfif isDefined("session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add]")
AND session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add] EQ "Yes" >checked</cfif>
<cfif structKeyExists("session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add]")
AND session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add] EQ "Yes" >checked</cfif>
HTML
<label for="FLResident_<cfoutput>#Add#</cfoutput>">
Are you a Florida resident?
</label>
<cfoutput>
<input type="radio" value="Yes" name="FLResident_#Add#"
id="FLResident_#Add#"
required="yes"
<cfif isDefined("session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add]")
AND session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add] EQ "Yes" >
checked
</cfif>/>
</cfoutput>
<label for="FLResident_<cfoutput>#Add#</cfoutput>">Yes</label>
<cfoutput>
<input type="radio" value="No" name="FLResident_#Add#"
id="noFLResident_#Add#"
<cfif isDefined("session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add]")
AND session.checkout.info["FLResident_" & Add] EQ "No" >
checked
</cfif>/>
</cfoutput>
<label for="noFLResident_<cfoutput>#Add#</cfoutput>">No</label>
Can anyone tell where I am going wrong?

How to keep drop down option selected in ColdFusion

The selected text is not staying selected in a drop down menu on my order page.
I've added a drop down menu to our order page to select the words "UPS Account Number, or "FedEx Account Number". Then an input box gets displayed for the user to type in their account number. I am using the onChange event with this drop down menu. This works fine on a page by itself, but when I try to use it on our order page, the selected text in the drop down menu does not stay selected. If I change the cfset to page.ShipAcctMethod, it errors out.
<cfif isDefined('form.ShipAcctMethod')
AND form.ShipAcctMethod NEQ "">
<cfset form.ShipAcctMethod = form.ShipAcctMethod>
</cfif>
<select name="ShipAcctMethod" required="yes" onChange="this.form.submit()">
<option value="" selected>Shipping Account</option>
<option value="UPSNumber" <cfif isDefined('page.ShipAcctMethod')
and form.ShipAcctMethod eq 'UPSNumber'>selected</cfif>>
UPS Account Number
</option>
<option value="FedExNumber" <cfif isDefined('page.ShipAcctMethod')
and form.ShipAcctMethod eq 'FedExNumber'>selected</cfif>>
FedEx Account Number
</option>
</select>
<br><br>
<!--- Choose a selection --->
<cfif isDefined('form.ShipAcctMethod') and
form.ShipAcctMethod eq 'UPSNumber'>
<input type="text" maxlength="100"
size="30"name="UPSNumber"
placeholder="UPS Account Number" required>
</td>
</tr>
<cfelseif isDefined('form.ShipAcctMethod')
and form.ShipAcctMethod eq 'FedExNumber'>
<input type="text" maxlength="100"
size="30"name="FedExNumber"
placeholder="FedEx Account Number" required>
</td>
</tr>
I need the selected text to stay selected because this is a requirement the user has to choose. How do I get the selected text to stay selected?
Sorry, I don't have the ability to comment since I don't have a 50 reputation, so I'm providing this as an answer. As Ageax said, the problem is because isDefined('page.ShipAcctMethod') should be isDefined('form.ShipAcctMethod'). Because of this, the condition will always evaluate to false and the "selected" attribute never gets set for those options.

Radio button not checked breaks page but works if checked

I have a simple form that I'm trying to pass data to which on the action page has an email that sends the data that I put into the form.
On my form page. I have a text field and two radio buttons.
My text field works if I don't put data into it. However, on my radio buttons the page works if I check it but doesnt work if I don't check it at all which results in my page breaking I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong? I want the page to process the default to "no" if I didn't check either radio buttons. Do I have to validate or something?
Here is my code.
<cfparam name="form.firstName" default="">
<cfparam name = "form.optradio1" default="no">
<form action="test.cfm" method="post">
<label for="firstName"></label>
<input type="text" name="firstName">
<input type="radio" name="optradio1" Value="Male" <cfif form.optradio1 eq "Yes">checked</cfif>>
</form>
That's how radio and checkbox inputs work in HTML. If they are not checked, they are not submitted on the form submit.
To determine if the radio input was checked, you can use
structKeyExists(form, <name of the input, as string>) as in
structKeyExists(form, "optradio1").
<cfparam name="form.firstName" default="">
<form action="test.cfm" method="post">
<label for="firstName"></label>
<input type="text" name="firstName">
<input type="radio" name="optradio1" Value="Male" <cfif structKeyExists(form, "optradio1")>checked</cfif>>
</form>
Assuming you have two radio inputs:
<cfparam name="form.firstName" default="">
<form action="test.cfm" method="post">
<label for="firstName"></label>
<input type="text" name="firstName">
<input type="radio" name="optradio1" Value="Male" <cfif structKeyExists(form, "optradio1") and form.optradio1 eq "Male">checked</cfif>>
<input type="radio" name="optradio1" Value="Female" <cfif structKeyExists(form, "optradio1") and form.optradio1 eq "Female">checked</cfif>>
</form>
Your initial code doesn't work because:
if checked, form.optradio1 was equal to Male
if not checked, form.optradio1 was defaulted to no because of
<cfparam name = "form.optradio1" default="no">

Form counting every record when clicking submit?

I have a form that im outputting results of comments, it can more than one.
I can aprrove these comments all at once, but what I'm trying to do is make it
with the option to submit 1 comment at a time or all comments at a time.
The form at first I wrote it to work on 'submit all', so now with adding a submit
per comment also, I get some errors.
I get because every time I submit a comment (1 comment) its still looking for all the other comments
which I did not submit.
What I think is doing since txtTotalRecords= Mush2.Recordcount, it trying to find the
other records which weren't submitted.
I just can't figure out how I can change this to make it work.
Doing a cfdump on the form i get, meaning there are 11 comments to submit.
How would I be able to change RecordCount to take in every record by itself?
<cfparam name="FormSubmit" type="string" default="FormNotSubmitted">
<cfif isDefined("form.submit")><cfset FormSubmit = "FormSubmitted"></cfif>
<cfif isDefined("form.submit1")><cfset FormSubmit = "FormSubmitted1"></cfif>

</cfloop>
......... more code...
I believe the code you are getting errors on is not in your sample code listed on this page.
I'm assuming you are doing a to/from loop based upon form.txtTotalRecords.
What you'll want to do is loop over your form items looking for a specific partial form name.
something like this:
<cfloop list="form.fieldnames" index="i">
<cfif left(i,13) IS "txtResponseID">
<cfset thisID = replaceNoCase(i,"txtResponseID","")>
<cfquery>
UPDATE myTable
SET approve = <cfqueryparam value="#form["execoffice_status" & thisID]#">
WHERE ID = <cfqueryparam value="#thisID">
</cfquery>
</cfif>
</cfloop>

Coldfusion: how get value of the radio button to do the loop?

For example:
How many item you want to select? 1 2 3 4
If 3 is selected then
loop from 1 to 3
do something
end loop
I want everything process in the same page. Can someone let me know what I need to do? I tried cfselect and radio buttons but no luck. Thank you.
I think you're over thinking the problem. The form will return the value of the selected radio button.
HTML:
<form method="post" action="">
<p>HOW MANY YOU WANT?!? YOU CHOOSE NOW!</p>
<input type="radio" name="varname" value="1" onclick="this.form.submit();">1
<input type="radio" name="varname" value="2" onclick="this.form.submit();">2
<input type="radio" name="varname" value="3" onclick="this.form.submit();">3
<input type="submit">
</form>
ColdFusion:
<cfif isDefined("form.varname") AND form.varname GT 0>
<cfloop index="i" from="1" to="#form.varname#" step="1">
<!--- Do Stuff --->
</cfloop>
</cfif>

File Upload is executing multiple times

I am trying to create a form where by the user selects a location where they then upload a document using CFFILE ACTION ="UPLOAD". I am not great at this so any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Below is my code. Essentially, there is a dropdown list of folder locations. The user first selects one of the locations. Then clicks 'browse' to choose a file. Finally they click submit and the file uploads.
The code that is #dir# is the folder location that is linked to each of the location names. What is happening at the moment is that the document gets uploaded successfully... but it is uploading to all the folder locations instead of the one that is selected from the dropdown. Here is my code:
docuploads.cfm
<cfquery name="getLocation">
SELECT *
FROM Locations
ORDER BY FolderName
</cfquery>
<form action="docuploads.cfm" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="upload_form" id="upload_form">
<select name="folderID">
<option value="">--- Select Folder ---</option>
<cfoutput query="getLocation">
<option value="#FolderName#"">#FolderName#</option>
</cfoutput>
</select>
<cfoutput query="getLocation">
<CFIF IsDefined("form.upload_now")>
<CFIF structKeyExists(form, "ul_path") and len(form["ul_path"])>
<CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD" FILEFIELD="ul_path"
DESTINATION="C:\Documents\#dir#\"
NAMECONFLICT="OverWrite">
<CFSET ClientFilePath = "#clientDirectory#\#clientFile#">
</CFIF>
</CFIF>
</CFOUTPUT>
<br /><br />
Click on the Browse button to select the file to Upload:<br>
<input type="file" name="ul_path" id="ul_path" style="height: 22px;width: 350px;" value=""><br><br>
<input type="submit" name="upload_now" id="upload_now" value="Submit" style="height: 22px;">
<input type="button" name="clear" value="Clear" style="height: 22px;">
<br /><br /><br />
</form>
I hope this makes some sense - can anyone shed any light on getting this to work?
I am assuming that you didnt post the complete code because your #clientDirectory#/#clientFile# don't seem to have a source in your code above.
I put together a possible sample of what It may look like. I also moved your upload routine from the body of your code to the top for readability.
<CFIF IsDefined("form.upload_now")>
<CFIF structKeyExists(form, "ul_path") and len(form["ul_path"])>
<!--- assuming you need to lookup info from the database --->
<cfquery name="getThisLocation">
SELECT FolderID, FolderName, dir
FROM Locations
where foldername=#form.folderid#
</cfquery>
<CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD" FILEFIELD="ul_path"
DESTINATION="C:\Documents\#getThisLocation.dir#\"
NAMECONFLICT="OverWrite">
<CFSET ClientFilePath = "#getThisLocation.clientDirectory#\##getThisLocation.clientFile#">
</CFIF>
</CFIF>
<cfquery name="getLocation">
SELECT *
FROM Locations
ORDER BY FolderName
</cfquery>
<form action="docuploads.cfm" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="upload_form" id="upload_form">
<CFIF IsDefined("form.upload_now")>
<CFIF structKeyExists(form, "ul_path") and len(form["ul_path"])>
<P>FILE UPLOADED</P>
</CFIF>
</CFIF>
<select name="folderID">
<option value="">--- Select Folder ---</option>
<cfoutput query="getLocation">
<option value="#FolderName#"">#FolderName#</option>
</cfoutput>
</select>
<br /><br />
Click on the Browse button to select the file to Upload:<br>
<input type="file" name="ul_path" id="ul_path" style="height: 22px;width: 350px;" value=""><br><br>
<input type="submit" name="upload_now" id="upload_now" value="Submit" style="height: 22px;">
<input type="button" name="clear" value="Clear" style="height: 22px;">
<br /><br /><br />
</form>
I also added a snippet of code to let the user know that the file has been uploaded.
Please try this:
<CFIF IsDefined("form.upload_now")>
<CFIF structKeyExists(form, "ul_path") and len(form["ul_path"])>
<CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD" FILEFIELD="#form.ul_path#"
DESTINATION="C:\Documents\#dir#\"
NAMECONFLICT="OverWrite">
<CFSET ClientFilePath = "#clientDirectory#\#clientFile#">
</CFIF>
<cfoutput>file uploaded successfully</cfoutput>
</CFIF>
<cfquery name="getLocation">
SELECT *
FROM Locations
ORDER BY FolderName
</cfquery>
<form action="docuploads.cfm" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="upload_form" id="upload_form">
<select name="folderID">
<option value="">--- Select Folder ---</option>
<cfoutput query="getLocation">
<option value="#FolderName#"">#FolderName#</option>
</cfoutput>
</select>
<br /><br />
Click on the Browse button to select the file to Upload:<br>
<input type="file" name="ul_path" id="ul_path" style="height: 22px;width: 350px;" value=""><br><br>
<input type="submit" name="upload_now" id="upload_now" value="Submit" style="height: 22px;">
<input type="button" name="clear" value="Clear" style="height: 22px;">
<br /><br /><br />
