It's sans-serif now!
Hi Zeb.
The Xperts, will I'm sure, tell you how this should be done.
I am new to this as you are. I've only done one web site using XDP7.
What I did was to go to the individual pages (the sub-menu ones) and changed the main button to the highlighted colour, manually.
You can see what I did at OSCAR User.

Take all the time you need, Steve! I'm thankful for your expert advice!
I read over that point 10 a few times and had a hard time comprehending what it was saying. So, if it's possible, that would be cool! I can live without the scroll up. I tried adding a layer on top and an invisible rectangle over the thumbnail with a link to #portfolio (I added a named anchor on the word) and all that happened is it scrolled up when I clicked on it but disregarded the link beneath to the image/YT link. Seems like you could somehow add that in the code. But, like I said, I can live without the page scrolling up.
I've named the layer 1/2/3/4 respectively just for brevity, but you can name them uniquely as well.
So long as the suffix (lock) is added.
Each thumbnail link syntax then becomes:
popup: "1(lock)", close "2(lock)", "3(lock)", "4(lock)" (opens layer 1 and closes any other which were opened)
popup: "2(lock)", close "1(lock)", "3(lock)", "4(lock)" (opens layer 2 and closes any other which were opened)
popup: "3(lock)", close "2(lock)", "1(lock)", "4(lock)" (opens layer 3 and closes any other which were opened)
popup: "4(lock)", close "2(lock)", "3(lock)", "1(lock)" (opens layer 4 and closes any other which were opened)
No close buttons necessary.
See attached for example.
Whew! That was a bit of work--but it worked! Thanks so much! I had to type it all out in a text document--what with 16 popups in all--and then paste them all in one by one. Here's the finished page.
Zeb the site is really nice. I love the illustrations and by using the lighter colours on the site the eye is drawn to the illustrations. Well done and good tip sledger
