I have in my form a field coded as follows this field comes before the submit button

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="numb" VALUE="one">

when I click on the submit I get the error

Error Diagnostic Information
An error occurred while evaluating the expression:
number="this#form.numb#"
Error near line 16, column 7.


if Ihit the refresh than it process it correctly and I cant recreate the error until I re-boot. there are apearently many people getting the same error because I get many e-mails complaing... any Idea of what is happening to my variables?
 
it probably doesn't like how you're setting "number".
if it wasn't processing the hiddend field the error would read,
numb not defined in form.
so it's most likely in your assignment.

try
<cfset number = "this" & #form.numb#>

If you have any doubts you can do a dump of your form variables and make sure it's there.

well now we have discovered that apearently it works on the non-secure side of the application. also most of the time on the secure side if you hit refresh it works just fine.
