Take a look at cflib.org. There's a list function that compares 2
lists and returns the shared elements. It sounds like that might be
what you're looking for.

Howdy all -
So I've been given the lovely task of parsing out an email of values from a
submitted form. Those in the know are already growning... ;)
Well in short it all boils down to this right now. How do you do a
contains with commas in the values?
original form feilds:
input name=mover value= Hydrogen Storage type=checkbox
input name=mover value=Gas Transport type=checkbox
input name=mover value=Power / HVAC , Settle, Gas type=checkbox
input name=mover value=Line / Pipe type=checkbox
input name=mover value=Some Option not selected 1 type=checkbox
input name=mover value=Some Option not selected 2 type=checkbox
I am doing the following:
CurrentCompareVar = Power / HVAC , Settle, Gas - this came out of a
struct I have of each value with a key
mover = CurrentCompareAllOptions = Hydrogen Storage, Gas Transport, Power /
HVAC , Settle, Gas, Line / Pipe
The value for CurrentCompareAllOptions are all of the check boxes that were
checked and emailed, thus I have no control over the value names otherwise
you wouldn't be reading this and commas would not be in it except to separate
values.
The CurrentCompareVar came out of a struct of all the values I manually
populated from all the checkbox values on the form.
I then perform:
cfif CurrentCompareAllOptions contains CurrentCompareVar
They checked this option.
/cfif
It does not work. No, error. Just no match.
It does work for every CurrentCompareVar except if there are commas in the
value.
For example if CurrentCompareVar = Hydrogen Storage I get a match.
or if CurrentCompareVar = Line / Pipe I get a match.
Let me know if more info is needed.
Thanks to all who can help.
