How to split a list ??

Just make sure you test that answer for lists with an odd number of elements.

Thank you for your replies.........That really helped me ........

listlen() would be part of the code if I had to split a list into two, almost equal halves.

> I want to input a list and want to divide it into two equal(almost equal) halfs..

There is no in-built way to do this (which bites).

But you can do this to split a list:

1) work out at which list item you want to split it
2) prepend some other delimiter to the item at that position in the list
3) use that other delimiter as the delimiter for a listFirst() or
listLast() [etc] call.

I want to input a list and want to divide it into two equal(almost equal) halfs..

ListFirst(), ListLast(), ListToArray() does'nt help

and the loop for of <cflist list="#listVar#"...>

CORRECTION

and the list from of cfloop - <cfloop list="#listVar#" ...>




I hate when I get interrupted and don't proof read properly.

What do you want to split it into?

There is a robust collection of list functions in CF. ListGetAt(),
ListFirst(), ListLast(), ListToArray() and the loop for of <cflist
list="#listVar#"...>

I suspect ListToArray() may be what you want, but check the
documentation for the function category of List to see the complete list
of list functions.
