Here is how I think it should be based on what u have shown, but I think you
should also be looking at the code that uses the request.language variable,
just setting them will not do anything by itself if nothing is using it.
<cfparam name="request.language" default="french">
<!--- remove language from querystring --->
<cfset query_string = ReplaceNoCase(query_string,'language=english','')>
<cfset query_string = ReplaceNoCase(query_string,'language=french','')>
<cfif server_name is "www.111translations.com">
<!--- do you really need this ? --->
<cfset request.language="english">
</cfif>
<cfif isdefined('URL.language')>
<!--- if language is set by a link set request var and cookie to that
language --->
<cfset request.language=URL.language>
<cfset cookie.language = url.language>
<cfelseif isdefined('cookie.language')>
<!--- otherwise if cookie exists, use its value --->
<cfset request.language=cookie.language>
</cfif>

I'm hurtin' here. Something still really wrong.
<cfif isdefined('request.language')>
<cfset query_string = ReplaceNoCase(query_string,'language=english','')>
<cfset query_string = ReplaceNoCase(query_string,'language=french','')>
<cfelseif server_name is "www.111translations.com">
<cfparam name="request.language" default="english">
<cfelseif isdefined('cookie.language')>
<cfset request.language = cookie.language>
<cfelse>
<cfparam name="request.language" default="french">
</cfif>
<cfif isdefined('URL.language')>
<cfset cookie.language=URL.language>
<cfset query_string =
ReplaceNoCase(query_string,'language=english','')>
<cfset query_string =
ReplaceNoCase(query_string,'language=french','')>
</cfif>
