Question...If I've made a Pop-Up layer...how can I make it so that the pop-up isn't anchored to the place I placed it on the page?
Meaning...if the viewer scrolls down the page...the pop up window will scroll down as well?

Select everything on the popup layer and make them Sticky.
Select popup layer in Page & Layer Gallery > CTRL+A (selects everything) > Utilities > Web Sticky/Stretchy > Sticky
I should probably add you will need to position the contents of the layer near the top of the page regardless of where the button/trigger to open it is. If it's halfway down the page it will not be visible as it will be 'stuck' to halfway down the page.
Thanks so much! That did it! Question...when you have "Sticky" enabled and your pop-up layer setting is NOT set to "close pop-up automatically" the "x" to close the pop-up window moves away from the pop-up's upper right hand corner and goes to the upper right hand side of the page...is there a way to change that?

I wouldn't use the built-in close popup setting, preferring to use the (lock) method...
Add (lock) at the end of your layer name
On your button/trigger you are using to open the popup, ensure it is opening the layer with (lock) in the name
You can leave the setting as Close Automatically and choose an transition if you wish
Add shape/text/graphic to the layer and select it
In the Link To Web Or Email Address box, type popup:close
Done.

OK...this seems to work but when I place the object in the pop-up layer above the image that's popping up...it moves the object behind the graphic for some reason?

Thanks so much for your help!

If I drop a video file into my pop up layer and select "Close Automatically" on the button/trigger that opens it...when I click to play the video the video automatically closes itself as soon as I click on it.
If I do not select "Close Automatically" then I can play the video when it pops up but then I get this silly black "x" popping up in the right hand corner of my screen to close the window:

Any idea on how I get rid of that black "X". Is there a way to customize that pop up so that "X" won't appear?

You have to forget at least 2 simple things per project, or you're doing wrong.
