On the page "Quick Start Guide : Content Update Forms" when creating the
100_validateform.cfm, the example code contains an error:
Line reading:
<cfset view.productforom = "Contragulatinos! Your product has been
updated.")>
will throw an error from that orphaned parenthesis.
I substituted:
<cfset view.productforom = "Contragulatinos! Your product has been
updated.">
and it does what I expected at that stage, i.e. shows validation messages
indicating that status, product name and category are
required
