This is related to my previous question here.
I want 4 divs (absolute with z-indexes) to start off as being invisible (faded out), and when a link is clicked, the related div fades in. When the same link is clicked, the related div fades out. When a different link is clicked, the first div fades out and the second div fades in.
There is a "covering" div ("#contents_screen") over these 4 absolute divs. This will probably form my "home" page, so it is required despite seemingly having no purpose.
I got it working to a certain extent, but no cigar. I'd appreciate some help. Thank you very much for looking!
