RE: One More List Question:
The code worked just fine for me. If you are having extra blanks, there
is something wrong with the data or with some other line of code. To
cover all bases, you can write a simple udf to create the list:
function addToList(list,value){
value = trim(value);
if(NOT Len(value)) value = -;
return ListAppend(list,value,|);
}
...
emailList = addToList(emailList,fromArray);
If you are not passing this list to HTML, I would use a structure to
store the info instead of a list. This way all your problems are gone
and your code becomes much more readable!

cfset emailList = ListAppend(emailList,REReplace(fromArray,^$,-

I've tried about every combination of REReplace I can thing of,
including [[:blank:]], but the below will toss an error every single
time.
Steve || [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Note multiple things wrong with this...
a. space before Steve
b. 2nd element is blank/missing
c. space before email address.
Trying to cover all stupid client tricks I can come up with...
I've got trim statements applied before this stuff gets written to
the
database, plus I'm validating the email addresses, but just trying to
get it divided up like the below when there's an empty position is
giving me fits...
cfset firstname = ListGetAt(emailLIST,1,|)
cfset lastname = ListGetAt(emailLIST,2,|)
cfset email = ListGetAt(emailLIST,3,|)

RE: One More List Question:
It's meant to be applied on the finished list. If you create the list yourself, just replace empty values by something cfset emailList = ListAppend(emailList,REReplace(fromArray,^$,-),|) Pascal -Original Message- From: Les Mizzell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 December 2004 18:41 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: One More List Question: http://www.cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=507 This looks like a start in the right direction.

Re: One More List Question:
Try: cfset emailList = Replace(emailList,||,| |,ALL) cfset emailLIST = ListAppend(emailLIST,Replace(fromARRAY,||,|*|,ALL),|) If I do the above, it works if the *middle* element is missing - but still errors if the first or last element is missing. I think I'm going to take a different route. Since I know each list should have 3 elements if formatted correctly: cfif ListLen(emailLIST,|) NEQ 3 Forget doing anything... /cfif If the list isn't formatted exactly like they've said it would be, it won't process it ...
