Also, you do not need to use ReFindNoCase since you are not using a regular
expression, you can simply use FindNoCase the syntax is basically the same.

Subject: More Refindnocase woes
Date: Mon, 2 Jun 2003 20:51:47 +0100
Right, I'm having a dead-brain moment here. The code below may not be
the best, but it does its job well enough apart from the problem I'm
having, of course :)
<cfset findthis = "UK,Australia,South Africa">
<cfset inthis = "UK Hello and welcome to <b> the list</b>.australia
south africa This is it!">
<Cfloop list="#findthis#" delimiters="," index="i">
<cfset customSearch = Refindnocase("#i#",
inthis, 1)>
<Cfif CustomSearch GT 0>
<Cfoutput>
Found #i#
</CFOUTPUT>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
I need to keep the cfloop as it is really, so any changes would best be
done in the refindnocase itself if that's possible. The problem is that
in this example, #i# would find all 3. I only ever want it to return
the first *found* country. I'm already limiting the text-to-be-searched
by 30 characters, but on occasions, more than 1 country is being found
and it's just making things screw up. What I want to tell it, is: "Find
one of these countries, but make sure if you find more than one that you
only choose the one the farthest to the left!"
Can anyone decipher my question/problem, let alone suggest a solution?
Cheers
Will
