Mark,

Thanks, Going from button message to action send message, you do need to 
use the $, However I use the below form and it works in a button but not in 
a tiddler tagged startup actions.

<$button>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-modal" $param="Username Modal"/> 
Action send</$button>

Almost all the $:/tags/StartupAction examples use a reveal widget, but even 
putting it within this makes no difference.

I am looking for any method, in the startup actions that can stop the user 
proceeding without taking an action.

Are their any alternatives to modals?


Regards
Tony
