You’ve got a field called PopupWindow in a class called PopupWindow. Just don’t do that. Change the name of the field to something else.

Quite why this affected your startup web page I don’t know… normally I just hit F5 when I’ve got the page I want highlighted 🙂 You can specify it in the “Web” part of your project properties though.
