You use standard ColdFusion MX form tags, such as cfinput or cftree, as you normally do in standard CFML forms to generate form input elements. ColdFusion MX maps most of these tags and their subtags (such as option tags in the cfselect tag) to equivalent XForms elements. ColdFusion maps applet and Macromedia Flash format cfgrid and cftree tags to ColdFusion XML extensions that contain Java applet or Flash objects. It converts XML format cfgrid and cftree tags to ColdFusion XML extension.
The specific attributes you can use and their meanings can depend on the skins.
Using ColdFusion MX skins The skins that are supplied with ColdFusion MX 7 support the attributes that you can use with HTML forms. You can also use label attributes to provide labels for the following tags:
cfinput with type attribute values of text, button, password, and file
cfselect
cfslider
cftextarea
Using other skins If you use any other skin, some attributes might not be supported, or the skin might support custom attributes. Get the information about the supported attributes from the XSLT skin developer.
