<cfset output = "<table border='#border#' bgcolor='#bgcolor#'>">
or
<cfset output = "<table border='" & border & "' bgcolor='" & bgcolor & "'>">
or ( CF5 only )
<cfoutput><cfsavecontent variable="output">
<table border="#border#" bgcolor="#bgcolor#"><tr><td>
</cfsavecontent></cfoutput>
All of these will give you roughly the same results... and when building
larger strings which include html formatting ( tables in particular ) I tend
to go with the latter, since it eliminates the need to escape double or
single quotes.
