That's a good point I had not considered. What if some
explanitory "connector" text were added between the two
parts in a new span, contained in the popup span?
"Main Section Page|, click this to go |to the front page"
Then that inner span is kept "display: none" for the css
page, and the popup does not show that new text. When css
is off, the link makes more sense.
I admit it could be clumsy in some cases, but that's par
for the course in web design, right?
I'll have to add this idea to the next part of the article.
The darned articles ALWAYS mushroom out of control! Oy.
