If I understand you - you would like to see if a value is in a list - right
?
<cfset myNbrToFind = "2" >
<cfset myListToSearch = "2,3,4,5,6,52" >
<cfif ListFind(myListToSearch,myNbrToFind, ",")>
<!--- do something cool if I find it ... and return the element position--->
<cfelse>
<!--- do nothing because it was not in my list --->
</cfif>
would work for you.
