I think this can be worked around if u will check for diffrences between the cursor field and the mouse field - system variables this is .

generally when u click on a poplist it gets into action of choosing a value , which u must get out of before executing the trigger . u can catch the event of mouse click for the poplist or maybe mouse down .
