Re: Pop up window!

Malcolm,

>This component is good for referencing static links like HTML help

I think what Howard is saying is that by using the GenericLink, we can have 
a Pop component that serves static and dynamic urls equally. This has the 
virtue that we only introduce 1 component. I hadn't thought of implementing 
the Pop as a wrapper component (I'd never looked at the Rollover before) but 
it sounds like a good idea.
