How about:
<cfif ListLen(myLIST) LT 10>
<cfset myLIST = "#myLIST##RepeatString('| ', 10-ListLen(myLIST))#">
</cfif>
You could loop and ListAppend, but lists are just strings, may as well just
throw the extra elements in. I think you need spaces in "empty" elements,
i.e. ListLen("a,b,c,,,") is just 3, but ListLen("a,b,c, , , ") is 6 as
you'd want and expect.
