@dan I have run into a very strange problem with the Reveal component. On one of my sites, I have a global footer that utilizes a Reveal to display its contents. This works great across all of the pages of the site, except one. On this one page, the content is briefly visible and then disappears. I cannot figure out what is going on with this one page. I can email you a link to the site in the cloud if you need to look at it. ---

Do you have a video on that page per chance? TIA ---

Aloha Paul, No, there are no videos on the page. But there are a lot of modal dialogs on this page. It is very strange. ---

I loaded a file earlier I have two pages with a reveal I want. One has a video on the other not but reveal. If I add video to reveal page or if I add reveal to video page the video works fine and reveal doesn’t. Dan did a video and it worked for him? He must have a special Elements computer!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ ---

Aloha Steve, I tried this, but it made no difference. I agree that Dan must have a special build of Elements. The puzzling thing is why it works perfectly on all the other pages except this one? ---

Interesting. But it does not explain why it works perfectly on 7 pages but does not work on one. @dan Any thoughts? ---
