It took some digging and searching and luck to figure this out. If you already know this, then skip to the next topic, but for those of us that don't, here's how to get flash forms to work for you...

Here's what I did and it should work for you...

1. Create a scripts folder under the root of your domain.

The next step requires access to a CF8 CFIDE/Scripts Folder (I have a dev copy of CF8 running on my computer).
2. Copy the entire contents of the C:\Coldfusion8\CFIDE\Scripts to the root\scripts directory you created in step 1.
3. Edit a .cfm and following to your <CFFORM> tag. Here's the complete code of what I did just to test it.

<cfform method="post" preloader="yes" format="flash" height="400" width="600" skin="haloblue" scriptsrc="/scripts/">
<cfinput name="FirstName" type="text" label="First Name" width="60" />
<cfinput type="submit" name="submit" value="Send Details" />
</cfform>

If you don't have access to CF8 CFIDE/Scripts files, let me know and I'll email you a zip file of them if you want. I wrote this "for the rest of us". If you have any problems, please let me know and I'll do the best I can to help you out.
