element id shorthand doesn't work client side on IE7

[hankmander]

the coffekup code:
div "#my_id", ->
gives:
<DIV class="#my_id">
instead of giving the element an id it gives the element a class that starts with a '#'. However, it works if you do this instead:
div id: "register_interest", ->

giving elements classes ( div ".my_id", -> ) works as expected though.

NOTE. This only occurs when client side rendering a template in Internet explorer 7. Might apply to other versions of IE as well.

Edit: version 0.3.1 of coffeekup and 1.1.2 of coffeescript used

Seems like it's the same with current versions of Opera.

I have the same issue with IE8

fix here:

I restricted it to hash in the beginning only. Moved empty string check up.
