Murray, is this something I should be able to do, just using FP2002? The
colors below the doors do what I want. I did not see that in the door
example you provided. Thanks, Paul

Yes, it works. Alignment is definitely tricky, though.

Swapping and positioning backgrounds is a great way to accomplish your
button rollovers. For example -

http://66.165.96.233/page2.php

The opening doors are all on a single background image

http://66.165.96.233/images/doors-bkg.gif

and they are simply CSS positioned behind the associated link.

Or did I show you this before?

And what does that have to do with the cost of tea in China?

You should be able to, yes. But you might have to work OUTSIDE of FP's UI,
by going into code view a bit.

If you look at the code on the page, you will see that it's suprisingly
slim.

The engine for this is the CSS that drives a) the placement of the doors,
and b) the positioning of the rollover images. Unfortunately, earlier
versions of FP offers no easy way to do such things by way of the UI.

How can I help you further with this?

I appreciate the help. I'll look at what you suggested. I also finally
found my copy of FP2003, so I'll replace my FP2002. Will that help me? Or
be a problem for me?

The version of FP will not make a different in this case, just work in HTML / Code View.
