Posted earlier, but I couldn't read it on the site. ------------------------------------------------------------------
Howdy all - So I've been given the lovely task of parsing out an email of values from a submitted form. Those in the know are already growning... ;) Well in short it all boils down to this right now. "How do you do a "contains" with commas in the values?" original form feilds: <input name="mover" value=" Hydrogen Storage" type="checkbox"> <input name="mover" value="Gas Transport" type="checkbox"> <input name="mover" value="Power / HVAC , Settle, Gas" type="checkbox"> <input name="mover" value="Line / Pipe" type="checkbox"> <input name="mover" value="Some Option not selected 1" type="checkbox"> <input name="mover" value="Some Option not selected 2" type="checkbox"> I am doing the following: CurrentCompareVar = Power / HVAC , Settle, Gas <----- this came out of a struct I have of each value with a key mover = CurrentCompareAllOptions = Hydrogen Storage, Gas Transport, Power / HVAC , Settle, Gas, Line / Pipe The value for "CurrentCompareAllOptions" are all of the check boxes that were checked and emailed, thus I have no control over the value names otherwise you wouldn't be reading this and commas would not be in it except to separate values. The "CurrentCompareVar" came out of a struct of all the values I manually populated from all the checkbox values on the form. I then perform: <cfif CurrentCompareAllOptions contains CurrentCompareVar> They checked this option. </cfif> It does not work. No, error. Just no match. It does work for every "CurrentCompareVar " except if there are commas in the value. For example if "CurrentCompareVar" = "Hydrogen Storage" I get a match. or if "CurrentCompareVar" = "Line / Pipe" I get a match. Let me know if more info is needed. Thanks to all who can help.
