Thank you Stephen but I was talking about the orange widget thing that
is in the top left hand corner of the front-end of the website (if
you're logged into the admin, of course).

So for instance, if I'm logged into the admin, I open the front-end of
the site in a new window and there's a little orange tab in the top
left. I click on the tab (or right click anywhere on the page) and it
opens up with the following options:

Show Design
Show Latest
Show Draft
Admin Page
Edit Page
Logout
Refresh App Scope
Disable Context Menu (hmmm ok so it just dawned on me that maybe the
"lil orange tab thingy" is called the "Context Menu"... Man, I'm a
smart one...)

When I click "Show Design" or "Refresh App Scope" or even "Logout" I
get the objectid (ie: non-FU) URL which breaks some code I have in
displayPageStandard (it does a FindNoCase() on url.path which url.path
doesn't exist when it switches to non-FU mode).

I'm typing updateApp and designMode in the URL currently but every now
and then I still click on the context menu (oOoo I'm using the
official name now!) and it's just annoying :/

It's nowhere near as important as I think it is, I was just curious as
to if the context menu can be changed to use FU's instead...

I do appreciate the response tho :)
