Thank you everybody! That worked great.  A bit of a head slap on my my part.
Although "file.cfm?#var###foo" 
does look odd with all those "#"s. Thanks again.  I'll let you know if I
find any browser problems.  Image maps aren't a problem - not using them.

Anthony,

You should be able to make the query string and the inline link work 
together - follow the advice you've already gotten about putting the query 
string first.  I have pages running successfully that are formatted like:
http://www.blah.com/page.cfm?foo=bar#spot

I should warn you however that we've experienced problems with image maps 
being disabled on pages with URLs like the above.  This only seems to 
happen in Netscape - IE is not affected in our experience.  I was not able 
to find any official reference or solution to this problem but did manage 
to locate one usenet posting from an ASP developer who also experienced the 
program - no solution though.  We ended up working-around the problem by 
splitting up the image which was mapped and wrapping the images in <a 
href...> type links.

Just wanted to give you a heads up!
Kevin
