Sounds like he's also outputting this straight to HTML as well though.
My suggestion is to completely abstract the linking with javascript. For
example, on my family blog I've got a js function which allows me to use
plain ole HREF links:
<a href="slideshow.cfm?slide=58&gid=19"
onclick="popUp(this.href,'fixedScrolling',800,800);return false;"
target="slideShow">Click to see a larger photo</a>
There's no pound signs in it at all. Here's the function:
function popUp(strURL,strType,strHeight,strWidth) {
var strOptions="";
if (strType=="console")
strOptions="resizable,height="+strHeight+",width="+strWidth;
if (strType=="fixed")
strOptions="status,height="+strHeight+",width="+strWidth;
if (strType=="fixedScrolling")
strOptions="status,scrollbars,height="+strHeight+",width="+strWidth;
if (strType=="elastic")
strOptions="toolbar,menubar,scrollbars,resizable,location,height="+strHeight
+",width="+strWidth;
window.open(strURL, 'newWin', strOptions);
}
Hope that helps.

I'm not sure what you mean by a "breaking ##", but if you simply use two
hashes instead of one within your CFOUTPUT, you should have one hash in your
generated HTML.
