    Default How Do I update Multiple Records with One Submit??

    Does anyone have a SOLID example of how this works? I've been struggling with
    this concept all day and am not understanding why it won't work. I want to
    list output, then alter the output, then update them all at once by clicking
    one button, but have not been able to do so. Can Anyone point me to a solid
    example? I even bought a book today and it doesn't have this topic covered in
    it.

    Here's what I have so far, and this is NOT working. I'm using an access
    database. <CFQUERY NAME='GETSITES' DATASOURCE='KeyWebData'> select * from
    tbl_sites </CFQUERY> <cfset #currentpage# = 'test.cfm'> <cfset #datasrc# =
    'datafeed'> <cfif IsDefined('form.SiteList')> <cfoutput query='GETSITES'>
    <cfset TheSitename = evaluate('SITENAME_#GETSITES.SITEID#')> <cfset SITEID =
    evaluate('SITEID_#GETSITES.SITEID#')> <cfquery datasource='#datasrc#'>
    UPDATE TBL_SITES SET SITENAME = '#Form.SiteList#' WHERE SITEID =
    #SITEID# </cfquery> </cfoutput> <cflocation
    url='#CurrentPage#?update=no'> </cfif> <form
    action='<cfoutput>#CurrentPage#</cfoutput>' enctype='multipart/form-data'
    method='post'> <table border='0' cellpadding='2' cellspacing='2'>
    <cfoutput query='GETSITES' MAXROWS='15'> <tr><td><input
    name='SITENAME_#GETSITES.SITEID#' type='text' VALUE='#ucase(SITENAME)#'
    size='50'></td></tr> <input name='SITEID_#GETSITES.SITEID#' type='hidden'

    </form>
