I *hate* it when I do that!  <g>

Sure.. I'd be happy to help out.  Let me know what would be needed for
everyone to discuss it/manage it, and I'll make it happen.  Lists, dev
space, whatever.

| Ok folks, I think Lee has just volunteered to coordinate the

| 
| I'll give you a hand making it happen if you'd like.

| Absolutely agree..
| 
| That's what I discussed in a wish proposal many moons ago.  
| (I think you and I actually had this discussion face-to-face 
| once.  Don't remember
| now.)
| 
| Would make it simple and straight-forward.

| | For what it is worth, those functions were designed to simplify 
| | working with HTML form fields and the like where empty fields are 
| | irrelevant. I am neither defending or arguing with the original 
| | design, but the fact of the matter is most of us use lists 
| not the way 
| | they were intended.
| | 
| | Problem is, think of how much existing code would break if 
| that were 
| | changed. The truth is it would be too dangerous to change at this 
| | point.
| | 
| | But, there is no reason we could not create replacement list 
| | functions. I propose we create parallel functions for every list 
| | function, call these CSVList...() instead of List...(), so 
| ListGetAt() 
| | would map to CSVListGetAt(), ListFirst() would map to 
| CSVListFirst(), 
| | and so on. Would be easy to write.
| | 
| | Anyone? :-)

| | Ok,
| | 
| | Have carefully considered what I want from CF, the most striking 
| | feature I want to see is...
| | 
| | "Stop treating empty list items as null."  That is a list of 
| | "3,5,,,3,2,2" should have a length of 7, instead of 5.  Doing this 
| | would nearly eliminate the need for any field names like 
| | name="cost_#i#", since HTML sends back "3,5,,,3,2,2" for duplicate 
| | text fields named "cost" anyways.
