I spent quite a bit of time on this, trying to get a popup to respond to the keyboard the way you would expect it to. Gawd! what a mess that was. I thought it would be an easy task, but gave up after I had spent more than 3 times my original estimate on it. That was the last problem I ran into. I was starting to look at the JMenu code to as a clue to how it dealt with the issue, when good sense prevailed and I abandoned the idea. -- John P. McGrath <JPMcGrath@fast.net> <jpm@nscs.fast.net>
