Cheers James,

I got the behaviour down and tested it out - it worked fine

I also tried out the no-more-gaps string and that worked great too - i think
i'll stick with this for basic link recolouring/redefining as I can throw it
on keyframes and redefine the links when the playback head passes the
scripted frame ( .. though playing around with it it I'm having trouble
getting the playback head to jump to the new marker unless I have an on
hyperlinkclicked behaviour on the actual sprite, which kinda defeats the
purpose of redefining the link html on a frame - the actual location to link
to is not updated .. but I will work on it tomorrow .. )

Dan
