Oh, and the reason this happens for "no apparent reason" (at least in my case) 
is when I use Dreamweaver and right click a tag to edit the attributes. If I 
leave an attribute blank (most notably on cfcomponent), it adds the attribute 
with a null value, giving me the error. It took me a LOOOONG time to figure it 
out the first time it happened, but I'm careful now.
