 Popups in FrameMaker are a treat. I made a little book for myself once (it had all sorts of stuff in it related to work, an address book, and a ton of other stuff) and I used it in printed form daily, but it had popups and hyperlink buttons for navigation in the software version. It was a great way to get around the book. I've used them in a few other places too, sometimes with an "invisible" button, so there was nothing in the printed version. Always loved that feature.
