This is what I currently have: Code: ..Text Protection ...$iif($eval($hget(protect,$chan)) == on,$style(3)) On:protchanon ...$iif($eval($hget(protect,$chan)) == off,$style(3)) Off:protchanoff Now, the item is ticked and greyed out after I click on one of the menu entries, but it never gets ticked and greyed out when I simply extend that part of the menu. This is very annoying, and quite frankly is pissing me off. If anyone can explain why it seems to be impossible to use $hget(blah,$chan) within a popup, I'd be very happy. Oh, yes, the hash table does exist, and I've tried almost anything to get that popup entry to work.

It seems $hget has issues in trying to evaluate an item in a hash table if it has the # character in front of it, especially within a popup menu. The only way I could get around it was to strip the # when I added the item to the hash table, and then appended the network to the end of it. A damn nasty hack.
