The most frustrating thing about Rev is how it makes me feel like a complete idiot sometimes!

I'm trying to implement a popup menu and it's just not working right. I read and reread the script conference and have done everything exactly as it was written there.

My problem is I can get the menu to display but it never goes away and doesn't seem to call my menuPick handler either.

I have the menu in a hidden button on the one and only card in my stack. I have a scrolling field that contains employee numbers and their names, one per line. What I want to do is:

If the user right clicks on a name or number, popup my menu and let them select "Add, Delete, Edit" and then be able to popup another stack that let's them make the appropriate change. Like I said, a right click WILL popup the menu and it does highlight the selection I'm making but the menu never goes away and locks up everything.

It should be noted that I put a debug statement just before and just after the "popup button mybutton" command and when I right click on the field, both messages get printed before I have selected ANYTHING from the popup menu. It appears like the popup command is sent but it immediately returns to the calling handler (in my case, the right-click in the scrolling field).

What could be up with this? My field has a mouseUp handler for the right click, and my button has a menuPick handler for the choice.

Also, is there a way I can pass the line that was clicked on to the popup command so that when a choice is made, my little "editor" can have the number and name of the person that was selected? Alternatively, can I pass back the selection that was made to the field mouseUp handler and let it remember which line the mouse was clicked on?

Thank you!
