Ray, Thanks again for your suggestion to try it outside any application. I was then able to isolate the issue (even tho' I thought I couldn't at first!), and it seems indeed that it occurs if whitespace is stripped from the cfdump output. You'll find a pair of very simple templates in this zip - http://aria-media.com/testDump.zip - that demonstrate the issue. Change the query in test.cfm to something that will work. Browse to test.cfm and it's fine. Browse to testDump.cfm and it's broken.
It could be argued that the developers need to be careful when stripping whitespace, but it could also be argued that this would be a simple fix and cfdump should be a little more robust, so why not? As I wrote, I *think*someone just needs to open the source template and repetitively search and replace all instances of 2 consecutive spaces with one space until no space-space instances are found. That should prevent any regex that strips whitespace from collapsingcodetogether and thereby breaking functionality. What do you think?
