I'm building a link generator tool that creates links to data driven glossaries. The theory is the user can cut and paste the link into either static text on the site, or into text areas on forms to update the data base. I can handle the quotes, but the #'s are giving me a fit.
I can output a link like: <a href="#" onclick="openPopUp('http://mysite.com/glossary.cfm?glossary=3&term=156', 'glossary', '410', '300', '110', '35')"> This works fine when it's going into HTML text, but when it's going into a cf form, the # throws off Cold Fusion. If I use a breaking ##, that work for cf handling, but isn't right for HTML text. So I thought I'd try, <a href="javascript: openPopUp('http://mysite.com/glossary.cfm?glossary=3&term=156', 'glossary', '410', '300', '110', '35)"> That works for cut and paste in both CF and HTML text, but it moves the current page to [Object]. Is there something I can add to the last statement to make the href execute the openPopUp but leave the current page alone; or is there another option? Thanks Robert B.
