Don't know for sure but it appears the delimiter is acting as a regular expression. Square brakets in a regular expression indicate optional components.
So, as a shot in the dark you could try "\[pagebreak\]" HTH Shawn Grover -----Original Message----- From: Wallick, Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 9:54 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Complex List Delimiter Quick question for you gurus out there.... I want to use a text delimiter for my content that's in a database. I want to use [pagebreak] as the delimiter. In php, I would use: // Split the text into an array of pages $textarray = split("\[pagebreak]", $content); However, in ColdFusion, ListToArray(content, "[pagebreak]") (or some similar function) is interpreted as any of the characters in the [pagebreak] string could be a delimiter (i.e. [ p a g e b r e a k ]). Any ideas? mike wallick * web application developer * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * 651.628.5377 * http://www.securecomputing.com ______________________________________________________________________ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
