Processing form data

Virtually all web applications that gather and write information to a database use a form to accomplish that task. Forms let you collect information from a user (using an order form, registration form, and so on) and write that information to a database. Like HTML, there are two independent steps for creating a form in ColdFusion:

1. Creating the layout for the form itself.
2. Writing the code to process the submitted information.
