I had a similar thought one time when I couldn't get the 'evaluate' to work.
I think it's essentially telling coldfusion to replace every double ## with
a single # when it stores it in the database. (self-escaped character), and
to not evaluate it then. When that gets put in from the database, however,
cColdFusion sees just #iif( StructKeyExists(URL, 'cpID'),DE('##URL.cpID##'),
0)# which I guess does the trick?
That is confusing though. Thanks for the example,
Tomek
