I have a form in CF8 where a user selects a client, fills out
a form, and then uses CFThread to process the submitted data, while
the user can go on to the next client and fill out another form,
etc.
I am trying to do something like this in CF4.5 where I
incorporate the customer ID into the form name so that it can work
similarly to the CF8 version, the user will just have to open
multiple windows of the same session so they don't have to wait for
all the calculations to take place (<3 cfthread <3).
Does anyone have any ideas about how this will work? Better
suggestions? I just want to make sure client A's data isn't mixed
up with client B's. The previous developer used CFLock and session
variables. I don't think this is the solution though because the
user would have to wait for the server to be done will all the data
before (s)he moves on, that and we used to have people doing what
I'm trying to implement now (opening multiple windows and
submitting) except that the situation would be funky because of
session variables being set hither and thither.
Thanks for the help!
