LISTGETAT |
Description Gets a list element at a specified position.
Returns Index of the list element at position position.
Category List functions
Function syntax
    ListGetAt(list, position [, delimiters ])
See also ListFirst, ListLast, ListQualify, ListSetAt; "Lists" in Chapter 3, "Using ColdFusion Variables," in ColdFusion MX Developer's Guide
Parameters
Usage If you use list functions on strings that are delimited by a delimiter character and a space, a returned list element might contain a leading space; you use the trim function to remove such spaces from a returned element. For example, consider this list:
    <cfset myList = "one hundred, two hundred, three hundred">
To get a value from this list, use the trim function to remove the space before the returned value:
    <cfset MyValue = #trim(listGetAt(myList, 2))#>
With this usage, MyValue = "two hundred", not " two hundred", and spaces within a list element are preserved. ColdFusion ignores empty list elements; thus, the list "a,b,c,,,d" has four elements.
Example
    <h3>ListGetAt Example</h3>
    <!--- Find a list of users who wrote messages --->
    <cfquery name = "GetMessageUser" datasource = "cfdocexamples">
       SELECT Username, Subject, Posted
       FROM  Messages
    </cfquery>
    <cfset temp = ValueList(GetMessageUser.Username)>
    <!--- loop through the list and show it with ListGetAt --->
    <h3>This list of usernames who have posted messages numbers
    <cfoutput>#ListLen(temp)#</cfoutput> users.</h3>
    <ul>
    <cfloop From = "1" To = "#ListLen(temp)#" index = "Counter">
       <cfoutput><li>Username #Counter#: #ListGetAt(temp, Counter)# </cfoutput>
    </cfloop>
    </ul>

LIST |

A list or a variable that contains one.

POSITION |

A positive integer or a variable that contains one. Position at which to get element. The first list position is 1.

DELIMITERS |

A string or a variable that contains one. Character(s) that separate list elements. The default value is comma.

If this parameter contains more than one character, ColdFusion processes each occurrence of each character as a delimiter.
