Little problem with HTML

[Luca T.]

Hello,
i need an idea about how to solve the following problem:
i need to show a popup menu with a couple of choices when an user clicks
on a link on my page.
In few words:
1) The user clicks on a link
2) A popup menu "pops up"
3) The user chooses an option from the popup menu
4) The page is redirected accordingly to the choice made by the user

This *must* work on:
- IE 5.5/6
- Mozilla 1.4/1.5
- Mozilla Firebird

Thank you,
Luca

Hate to say this, but why must this be a pop-up? What about users who
block pop-ups? What about users without javascript, or javascript
disabled? Why not just a plain href?

Hmmmm not popup like a popup window... but popup like when you
right-click on the desktop.
If i can avoid javascript i will... what i am searching is a
pure-w3c-html/css solution.
In few words, i do not want to have to open a new page to let the user
choose.

Thanx,
Luca

If you want an HTHM/CSS solution then it is not possible.

What you are looking for is javascript menus, thousands of which are
available at google.

But a solution that works is possible using javascript to provide the
enhanced hide/pop functionality.

Define "works". "Works" as in only the users with a JavaScript enabled (and
with JavaScript on)? That doesn't seem very "working" to me.

links are accessible.

If you want an HTHM/CSS solution then it is not possible.

Not even with some :active pseudo-selectors?
