Hi Wayne,

Might you have the next-to-last commit?  The orphaned dropdown should have been fixed in the latest.

I think I’m close to getting this to work so I’d like to stick at it a bit longer.  I’ve pushed fixes for stay-on-top and possibly the height problem.  The stay-on-top thing might also fix the can’t-close-popup-by-clicking-outside-it.

Cheers,
Jeff.
