Yes I agree with that, and my response would be that the list element is
seperated by the delimiter hence returning the wrong value! And the
documentation even clearly states, "String being sought in elements of
list." And in this example 10 is an element where as 1 is not an element in
this example....

No, this isn't a bug.
According to the documentation, ListContains returns the index of the first
list element THAT CONTAINS THE SPECIFIED SUBSTRING.
Your code returns true because the substring "1" is contained in the list
element "10".
So it doesn't really do what you were thinking.

Subject: ListContains wierdness - why?
Why does the following always return TRUE?
<CFSET FooList = "6,7,8,9,10">
<CFIF ListContains(VARIABLES.FooList, "1")>
TRUE
<CFELSE>
FALSE
</CFIF>
Do I need to put the values into an array?
