1. well if popup object is avaible only in IE 5.5 then DQSD will loose the 5.0 crowd...i wonder what the real stats are as far as 5.0 vs 5.5+. personally id liek to see this tool work with 5.0+ as that seems to be around since at least 1999 or 2000 right?
2. the hack i did seems to work because it ties into events of the html being displayed in the poup window..i guess this is a bug, so its not to be relied on
3. that sucks ;( i think the popup is so cool cause it gets rid of the title bar chrome...is there another way to accomplish what i want?

It's not possible. The Popup object, available in IE5.5+ (only) is
designed EXPLICITLY to prevent that type of functionality.
Using the Popup Object
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/om/popup_overview.asp
Selective quotes:
* A popup object always closes when the user clicks away from it or
when another popup object is opened.
* The popup object never has focus when it is displayed so processes
continue to run in the parent window.
* The popup object does not support text boxes of any kind.
* No elements inside of the popup object can be selected.
* No navigation can occur inside the popup object itself...
Note Because the popup object never takes focus, focus related events
such as onfocus and onblur are not applicable to the popup object.
...
IOW, don't use that method (which is what makes the
displayPopupMessage function work) if you want to be able to have
significant control over the popup or have it provide any more than
marginal functionality.
