Problem
You need to loop over a structure and output the values.
Solution
Outputting values from a structure might seem a little difficult at first. Unlike arrays, which are index based, structures are key based. But, as it does with just about everything else, ColdFusion provides a simple solution!
Detailed explanation
Using a Collection Loop:
In order to loop over a structure you will need to use a collection loop. A collection loop is similar to an array loop, only you provide the collection and item attributes rather than the array and index attributes.
<!--- create the structure --->
<cfset superBowlChamps = {
TEAM = "Indianapolis Colts",
QB = "Peyton Manning",
WR = "Reggie Wayne",
RB = "Joseph Addai",
COACH = "Jim Caldwell"
} />
<!--- Loop over the structure and output the key|value pairs
--->
<cfoutput>
<ul>
<cfloop collection="#superBowlChamps#" item="i">
<li>#i#: #superBowlChamps[i]# </li>
</cfloop>
</ul>
</cfoutput>
