<cfif ParameterExists(FORM.myString)>
<P>Using ParameterExists, we have shown that the FORM
field "myString" now exists. However, this function is
provided for backward compatibility and
the function IsDefined should be used instead, as below.
</cfif>
<cfif IsDefined("FORM.myString")>
<P>Because the variable FORM.myString has been defined, we
can now show its contents. This construction allows us
to place a form and its resulting action template in the same
template, while using IsDefined to control the
flow of template execution.
<P>The value of "FORM.myString" is
<B><I><cfoutput>#FORM.myString#</cfoutput></I></B>
<cfelse>
<P>During the first time through this template, the variable
"FORM.myString" has not yet been defined, so we
are not attempting to evaluate it.
</cfif>
