drop-down menu
Is there a way to create a drop-down menu which opens up a small pop-up window and actually highlights the text in the pop-up window. The pop-up window file will have numerous links that the drop-down menu goes to and I would like the area to stand out by some type of highlight or color.

I'm not sure there, it seems possible but I'm not quite sure how. If I find out something I'll post it here.

What exactly do you mean by highlighting the text? You could probably just use a table with a highlighted cell color. I can post the code for the popup up window and dropbox if you like.

My drop-down menu will have a link to each row in the table. When they click on the link a pop-up window will open up and take them to that spot in the table. I wanted it to stand out since there would be rows above and below it with text for other links. I would be great if you could post the code. Also is there a way to keep the pop-up window on top instead of having it go behind the browser once you click outside the pop-up window.
Thanks

I still can't get my head around this one. You will have to show me an example or prepare a demo with as much as you can do.
Anyway heres the popup window code:-
*Replace Y/N with 'yes' or 'no'
var windowFeatures = 'height=NUM,width=NUM,';
windowFeatures += 'screenX=NUM,screenY=NUM,top=NUM,left=NUM,';
windowFeatures += 'location=Y/N,menubar=Y/N,resizable=Y/N,';
windowFeatures += 'scrollbars=Y/N,status=Y/N,toolbar=Y/N';
function newWindow() {
window.open('URL','NAME',windowFeatures);
}

No, my drop-down menu basically looks like a Search form. Once they find the specific word they are looking for it links to a separate pop-up window with the description. All the words are located in the same file in a table. I tried to make the window only show that specific word and description but it will only let me make the window so small. I would like that specific text to stand out by being bold or highlighted. I do like your drop-down box but I have too many words which will make it a lengthy list.

Hey dude, check out www.angelfire.com/ct2/dbzworld. it's a site that i made about Dragonball Z. Go to the bar and hover over one of the links and it brings down a drop-down menu.
