<cfif IsDefined("FORM.submit")>
   <cfset myNumberArray = ArrayNew(1)>
   <cfset myNumberArray[1] = number1>
   <cfset myNumberArray[2] = number2>
   <cfif Form.Submit is "Maximum Value">   
      <!--- use ArrayMax to find the largest number in the array --->
      <p>The largest number that you entered is
      <cfoutput>#ArrayMax(myNumberArray)#.</cfoutput>
   </cfif>   
</cfif>   
<!---- The following form provides two numeric fields that are compared when 
the
form is submitted. --->
