ListSort — New as of ColdFusion 4.01

Synopsis

ListSort(list, sort_type [, order] [, delimiters])

Sorts a list based on the sort_type (numeric, text, or textnocase) and optionally, the sort order (asc, the default, or desc). An optional delimiter can be specified if the list is delimited with a character other than the comma (the default). The following example sorts a list by alphabetical order:

<CFSET MyList = "Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday,Sunday">

<CFOUTPUT>
<B>List:</B> #MyList#<BR>
<B>Sorted by Alphabetical Order:</B> #ListSort(MyList, 'text')#
</CFOUTPUT>
