Check out the ListContainsNoCase()function. I believe that this may do it
for you:
<cfif ListContainsNoCase(mylist, optionvalue)> selected</cfif>

Subject: Multiple Select Lists
Hi,
<Begin_Dumb_Question>
In an HTML form users can often select multiple <option> values in a
<select> list. Let's say they do - submit the form and store these values
as a comma delimited list in a database.
Let's say an intrepid developer would like to be able to query this database
and have the values returned to a new page with a new select list with the
previously stored values then selected in the drop-down list.
I've set something up much like this and use a clunky set of <cfif>
statements to to set the selected elements. This works like a champ for the
first value - but subsequent values are ignored. I feel like I should be
running the returned values through a loop wrapped around my condition
checking...As it stands I've probably made a fairly simple thing - wayyy to
hard. Am I? Any help is appreciated.
