Hi,
I have a list with a number of elements, for example I might have 10
elements in my list (filled with numbers 1 to 10). What I'd like to do
is get the last 3 elements from my list, maybe I'd like to get the first
3 or the last 5, etc.
Ideally I'd do the following to get the last 3 elements in my list:
myList = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10";
Right(myList, 3);
This doesn't work as ColdFusion treats a List as a String, so the above
will only return the last 3 characters in my list (",10").
I could do the following to get what I need:
<cfset myList = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10">
<cfset myNewList = "">
<cfloop from="0" to="2" index="idx">
<cfset myNewList = ListAppend(myNewList, ListGetAt(myList,
ListLen(myList) - idx))>
</cfloop>
But I see this looping and having to work out the correct from/to values
a bit messy, there must be an even simpler way, anybody have any tips
for me?
Thanks,
Chris W
