Parameters
 
Parameter      Description
list A list or a variable that contains one.
  You define a list variable with a cfset statement.
delimiters A string or a variable that contains one. ColdFusion treats each character in the
  string as a delimiter. Default: comma.
 
Usage
ColdFusion ignores empty list elements; thus, the list "a,b,c,,,d" has four elements.
ColdFusion treats each character in the delimiters attribute as a separate delimiter. Therefore, if the attribute is ",+" ColdFusion will break the list at either a comma plus sign.
