Insert ColdFusion file fields
You can visually insert a ColdFusion file field into your form and set its properties. Use a file field to let users select a file from their computer, such
as a word processing document or a graphics file, and upload it to the server. A ColdFusion file field looks like other text fields, except it also has a
Browse button. Users can manually enter the path to the file they want to upload, or use the Browse button to locate and select the file.
File fields require that you use the POST method to transmit files from the browser to the server. The file is posted to the address that you specify
in the form’s Action box. Contact your server administrator to confirm that anonymous file uploads are allowed before using a file field in your form.
File fields also require that the form encoding be set to multipart/form. Dreamweaver sets this automatically when you insert a file field control.
Note: This enhancement is available only if you have access to a computer running ColdFusion MX 7 or later.

Insert ColdFusion date fields
Although you can’t visually insert a ColdFusion date field in Dreamweaver, you can visually set its properties. A ColdFusion date field is a special
type of text field that lets users select a date from a pop-up calendar to insert it in the text field.
Note: This enhancement is available only if you have access to a computer running ColdFusion MX 7 or later.
