It's not a showstopper, hell it's hardly a blip. But it may cause some folks some grief so I thought I'd mention it. The classic CF server side validation using hidden fields doesn't render the custom error message in CFMX.
For example,
<input type="Text" name="FirstName" size="50" maxlength="75">
<input type="hidden" name="FistName_required" value="You must enter a first name.">
When you run it in CFMX, you don't get the right message... instead of saying
"You must enter a first name." as it would have in earlier versions of CF, it says "A value must be entered for the FIRSTNAME field."
Thanks to Emily B. Kim (gtalliance.com) for pointing this out!
BTW Macromedian report that this is a known issue but I couldn't get a resolution date.
