I think Aldon wants to return everything before the second space, correct?
So just two words with a space between them?
Maybe something like this - looping over the string and flagging occurences
of a space, then taking the left characters when the second space is
discovered. Kinda bulky but it should work.
<cfset flag=0>
<cfloop from="1" to="Len(theString)" index="theChar">
<cfset thischar=Mid(theString, theChar, 1>
<cfif thischar is " ">
<cfset flag = flag + 1>
<cfif flag = 2>
<cfset finalstring = Left(theString, theChar - 1)>
<cfbreak>
</cfloop>
Didn't test it but something like that should work ok - finalstring being
what you are looking for.
