Search in Naslu

<!--- 
	Use this to do an exact pattern check for a value in a list.
	This is useful inside of a loop checking numbers against a number list.
	
	EX : 
	
	list = "91, 92"
	
	if you loop from 1 - 100, ListFind and related CF functions will match
	on 1, 2, and 9.  Not just 91 and 92
		
	Use this when you're looping and you ONLY want to match on 91, or 92

		// clean up to be safe
		list = trim( toString( list ) );

		position = ListContains( list, value ) ;
	
		if( position > 0 )
		{
			// NOTE : KEEP THE TRIM AND TOSTRING
			found_value = trim( toString( ListGetAt( list, position ) ) );
