Thanks, Ryan, for this tip. The pop-up box in the thumbnail and tile views is now showing up in a legible black font.
A similar problem is occuring on the "Hometowns" view for the 2 results that cannot be plotted. I've used Firebug to inspect this portion of the page and it is obviously the "a:link" in the style portion of the page that is producing this outcome. I've tried to write a similar rule to override the style here, but have had no success to this point. Is the number of results that cannot be plotted not part of "exhibit-menu-popup"? http://webdrive.service.emory.edu/users/bcroxal/www/english_grad_exhibit.html Best, Brian General List <[email protected]> writes: >Brian L.
