Yes, you can use any number of popup menus on your page.

You can use onMouseOver event instead of onClick or onContextMenu events in that case.
> 3) What is: menuInd - index of the javascript menu script on a page, >= 0 ?
Each menu has ID. The ID's number starts with 0.
So, when you have several data files on your page you have such ID's:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="menu-top.js"></script> // ID - 0 //standard menu (doesn't use popup feature)
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop.js"></script> // ID - 1
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop1.js"></script> // ID - 2
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop2.js"></script> // ID - 3
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop3.js"></script> // ID - 4
and so on.
If you want to have different Popup menus (there color, item, text,font and so on) you should create different .js files with yourparameters. And call them from your page, for example:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="menu-top.js"></script>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop1.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop2.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop3.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
If you have different item text only you can use one
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
file. But you should delete the following code:
var menuItems = [
["Next","testlink.htm"],
["Prev","testlink.htm"],
["Close","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
and move it to the html page:
<body>
...
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //first popup menu ID - 1
var menuItems = [
["Next","testlink.htm"],
["Prev","testlink.htm"],
["Close","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //second popup menu ID - 2
var menuItems = [
["Text","testlink.htm"],
["Text1","testlink.htm"],
["Text2","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //third popup menu ID - 3
var menuItems = [
["New_Text","testlink.htm"],
["New_Text1","testlink.htm"],
["New_Text2","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //fourth popup menu ID - 4
var menuItems = [
["New","testlink.htm"],
["New","testlink.htm"],
["New","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<img src="testimage.gif" width=200 onClick="return dm_popup(1, 1000, event);" style="cursor: hand;">
<img src="testimage.gif" width=200 onClick="return dm_popup(2, 1000, event);" style="cursor: hand;">
