ListGetAt, ListSetAt, ListLen
 
Parameters
 
Parameter      Description
list A list or a variable that contains one.
position A positive integer or a variable that contains one. Position at which to delete
element. The first list position is 1.
delimiters A string or a variable that contains one. Character(s) that separate list elements.
  Default: comma.
  If this parameter contains more than one character, ColdFusion processes each
  occurrence of each character as a delimiter.
 
Usage
To use this and other functions with the default delimiter (comma), you can code as follows:
<cfset temp2 = ListDeleteAt(temp, "3")>
To specify another delimiter, you code as follows:
<cfset temp2 = ListDeleteAt(temp, "3", ";")>
ColdFusion ignores empty list elements; thus, the list "a,b,c,,,d" has four elements.
 
Example
<!--- First, query to get some values for our list elements--->
<CFQUERY NAME="GetParkInfo" DATASOURCE="cfsnippets">
   SELECT    PARKNAME,CITY,STATE
   FROM Parks
   WHERE    PARKNAME LIKE 'CHI%'
</CFQUERY>
<CFSET temp = ValueList(GetParkInfo.ParkName)>
<CFSET deleted_element = ListGetAt(temp, "3", ",")>
<cfoutput>
<p>The original list: #temp#
</cfoutput>
<!--- Delete the third element from the list --->
<CFSET temp2 = ListDeleteAt(Temp, "3")>
<cfoutput>
<p>The changed list: #temp2#
<p><I>This list element:<br>#deleted_element#<br> is no longer present
at position three of the list.</I> </cfoutput>
