problem =
made a bottom row title bar with links in it
grouped - then said repeat all pages
it did
but after posting = the links stopped working
I peeked into the source code and saw the bottom title bar was now a PNG????
so - getting better at playing sherlock ... deduced that making a Group might be the problem
so I click UN-group (got a warning message that said will stop repeating I ungroup
said ok - even though fearful it would disappear from the other pages-- it did not disappear
so - I can now go UNGROUP every page (not that hard to do)
BUT
might as well now ask if there is a better solution (to add to my knowledge base)

THANKS!

ps
where can we view our sourse code per page in XARA? or do we need to publish/export first?
