Problem Description:
Prior to CF10 to turn a repeated form element into an array we used getPageContext().getRequest().getParameterMap().
This worked smoothly this feature was replaced in CF10 with the application flag:
<cfset This.sameFormFieldsAsArray = true> This works nice except it removes empty elements. getPageContext()...getParamterMap() now returns an empty struct.
Steps to Reproduce:
Create a form like so: <form method="post"><input type="fld" value='1'><input type="fld" value=""><input type="fld" value="3"><input type="submit"></form>
Actual Result:
This returns an array form["fld"] with a length of two containing [1,3]
Expected Result:
This should have returned an array form["fld"] = [1,"", 3]
Any Workarounds:
Switching the form to enctype="multipart/form-data" and using form.getPartsArray()
