<!--- 1) Create a form with a hidden form field like shown below, and place it in a layout template, or in a display object, etc. ---> | |
<form method="post"> | |
<input type="text" name="myField" value="Some Value"> | |
<input type="hidden" name="myFormIsSubmitted" value="true"> | |
<input type="submit"> | |
</form> | |
<cfscript> | |
// 2) In the eventHandler.cfc (Site, Theme, Plugin, or other custom handler) you could listen for the even in one of Mura's eventHandlers such as 'onRenderStart' | |
public any function onRenderStart(event, m){ | |
if ( arguments.event.get('myFormIsSubmitted') == 'true' ){ | |
arguments.m.announceEvent('CustomFormSubmitted'); | |
} | |
} | |
// 3) In the eventHandler.cfc (Site, Theme, Plugin, or other custom handler) you could then have your custom event | |
public any function onCustomFormSubmitted(event, m) { | |
// do something here | |
WriteDump(var=arguments.event.get('myField), abort=true); | |
// OR, WriteDump(var=arguments.event.getAllValues(), abort=true); | |
} | |
</cfscript> |

Steve. For some reason my 'onRenderStart' inside my eventHandlers -> plugin.cfc directory, fires 2 times per request and my custom form handler, fires 4 times per request? Any ideas? Thanks...
