Interactive button problem

Hi

I use interactive buttons to move between pages on my website. I am finding
that some buttons are 'changing'. E.G. A button with the name "News" will
suddenly change to "About us" - this may happen in the default position or
when you mouse over the button its name will change. The hyperlinks still
work correctly. I am not touching the buttons they seem to change of their
own accord.

Any suggestions please?

Many thanks

Adrian

I had the same problem! while moving over the interactive button on left
hand side the buttons on the top (vertical) changed. I had to scrap the
whole site and redo it.

I had the same problem.
If you switch to split (or code) view, you will see that the id is the same.
FP does not do a good job keeping track of this number. If all buttons were
created on the same page, the id will increment. If you use shared (or
includes), then this increment gets messed up. Basically, you will have to
manage the id numbers yourself.

Once you get this resolved, I'm sure a new problem will develop. Lets take
it one step at a time.
 
Hi everyone and many thanks for your replies.

JCO: Just to clarify, (I'm a bit of a novice at this!) are you saying that I
should number the button images myself rather than letting FP do it
automatically? I had a look on the MS Knowledge base
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/817123/en-us and it seems that this is a bug
known to MS. The suggestion to fix it looks a bit beyond me. Makes you
wonder why they can't come up with a fix.

Best
