option menu on iPad

I'm using 5.5 and the option menu doesn't seem to work on the iPad. I'm using the following code as the button script:

on menuPick theItem
switch theItem
case "Topic1"
go to card 5
break
case "Topic2"
go to card 6
break
case "Topic3"
go to card 7
break
end switch
end menuPick

where "Topicx" is the item in the menu item list

Any ideas? Works fine in LiveCode. The picker comes up fine on the iPad, just doesn't do anything :(

I tend to group several buttons and then select the" highlite one button at a time" mode in the group prop inspector and use either the hilitedbuttonname property or use the iphonecontoltarget (?) or I think the get menuhistory of me (and me refeingr to the group holding the buttons) may also work. Not sure your script works on IOS or not? Look it up in the dictionary and look for the IOS stamp to see if its copesetic.

Hope in some way this helps
