Mail Engine Switches to PHP Mailer-SMTP

One of my web sites has always used the "default" email engine for submitting forms. In the latest build of WB (20.0.6), the email engine switches from the "default" setting to PHP Mailer-SMTP all on its own. I have gone into the form settings (on a flex grid) and have changed the email engine ...

Why not add a second layout grid with the alternate video for the 480, then hide it in all the other views. Of course, the original layout grid will have to be hidden in the 480 view. It will add to the page weight somewhat, but it works.

The text items that make up your menu on the master page must have unique IDs. The current IDs are "Text1", "Text2", etc. Those IDs will probably be duplicated on the pages using the MasterPage, which will cause problems.
