Okay, I redid the menus altogether and I finally got them to go to the links I wanted to. So far so good.
The only thing that was nice about the original layout/template was that after you clicked a number menu button, read the answer, saw the question, then hit the button to go back to the main page, the number would be blacked out.
I can't for the life of me figure out how they did it! I'll be happy to post the muse files for both my layout and the template if someone can help me figure it out!
