Do a ListLen(str, "$") to see if the second element is present first.

Take the following xml string value:
        1969 Chevrolet Camaro - Windsor, ON N8W 5J1 - $44900

I use the following code to extract and set the price:

<cfif findNoCase("$", theArray[i].description.xmlText)>
        <cfset price = listlast(theArray[i].description.xmlText, "$")>
</cfif>

Sometimes though, the xml data is incomplete and looks like this:
        1969 Chevrolet Camaro - Windsor, ON N8W 5J1 - $

My current logic bombs on the listlast statement. Any ideas how to fail
gracefully and set the price to zero when this happens?

Thanks, Che
