ColdFusion.navigate Refreshing Page
I'm running the following code jsut as a simple example to get something working.
My SearchRecords.cfm page simple has the text 'test' on it.
When the submit button is pushed 'test' appears briefly and then vanishes as if the page reloaded again.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I was under the assumption that the page being posted to would return its value to the CFDIV permanently and not just briefly.

}

<cfform name="auto" id="auto">
<INPUT NAME="Get Data" TYPE="submit" VALUE="Get Data" onclick="javascript:ColdFusion.navigate('SearchRecords.cfm','outputPage','',myerrorhandler,'POST','auto');" />
</cfform>
<cfdiv id="outputPage"/>

both, submit the form to a page and display the result in the div
If you place the form inside the CFDIV and get rid of the navigate function, by default the form submit will submit and redraw only the contents of the CFDIV. You don't need both.

Will the form still be present? Or will it be replaced by the returned value?
My goal is to update a part of the page where the form isn't placed

That indeed was it, thanks for the help!
Coldfusion.navigate will navigate the URL into the DIV
But Submit will submit a form within the div without refreshing the page.
What is your goal to submit the form or to just change the div when clicking a button?
