CF has always ignored blank elements.....annoying... but there are workarounds.
-----Original Message----- From: Martin Thorpe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 August 2006 13:41 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CF Arrays One thing that tripped me up about arrays recently was that when using listToArray or arrayToList it drops any blank elements. So if you have arMy[1] = "hello"; arMy[2] = ""; arMy[1] = "again"; If you put this through arrayToList it will be an arraylen of 2 not 3. This might not affect anyone but I was parsing tab delimeted data with blanks on some rows and not others so it screwed up the inserts. Putting a [space] in for the blank sorts the problem. cheers Martin > I was getting an error that appeared to be randomly occurring in one > of my sites: "The element at position [n] cannot be found" > Eventually I traced it to the fact that I had been using ArrayLen to > set the number of iterations for a loop when the array size had been > expanding.
