<cfloop collection="#application.translate#" item="field">
to
<cfloop list="#listSort(structKeyList(application.translate),
"textnocase")#" index="field">
and it'll sort it for you. I bet that's what CFDUMP does internally.

Subject: CFMX and a collection loop problem
We store language translations for our site in an XML file that we load into
an application variable like this.
<cffile action="" file="#attributes.xmlfile#" variable="wddxpacket">
<cfwddx action="" input="#wddxpacket#"
output="application.translate">
In CF5.x we access via a loop to make an editing interface.
<cfset lastletter = '@'>
<cfloop collection="#application.translate#" item="field">
<cfif mid(field,1,1) NEQ lastletter AND mid(field,1,1) NEQ '1'>
<cfset lastletter = mid(field,1,1)>
<cfset anchorhref = '##'&lastletter>
<cfoutput>
<input type="Radio" name="letter" value="#lastletter#"
size="+1"
color="##000080">#lastletter#</font>
</cfoutput>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
This then prints out a nice list of the letters of the alphabet that have
content. All works great in CF5 but under MX the fields are brought back in
a pseudo random order. If I do a <cfdump> of the application variable it is
just fine it is only inside the loop that I have problems.
