If I am explicitly telling CF that the delimiter is two pipes, why would it stop when finding only one? I tried this with other delimiters and found the same behavior. Am I crazy or does this appear to be a bug?
NOPE, it is not a bug but defiantly not an intuitive way for this to work. But it is explained this way in the documentation. When you provide a list of delimiters it is not an AND list, it is an OR list. That means the list will be broken on any single character in the list. See if this example does not clarify the behavior for you a little bit. <cfset myList = 'element 1|element2,element3'> Single list using '|' OR ',' as delim <br><br> length = #listLen(myList, '|,')# <br> element1 = #listFirst(myList, '|,')# <br> element2 = #listGetAt(myList, 2, '|,')# <br> element3 = #listLast(myList, '|,')# <br> -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA --------- | 1 | | --------- Binary Soduko | | | --------- "C code.
