I'm not sure where you need to modify as you have not provided your code. However below is a snippet taken from the OpenLayers example found here.

        var report = function(e) {
            OpenLayers.Console.log(e.type, e.feature.id);
        };

        var highlightCtrl = new OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature(vectors, {
            hover: true,
            highlightOnly: true,
            renderIntent: "temporary",
            eventListeners: {
                beforefeaturehighlighted: report,
                featurehighlighted: report,
                featureunhighlighted: report
            }
        });

so i would hazard a guess that you will need to simply add the line hover: true to your SelectFeature config, to fully select you could remove the line highlightOnly: true or change it to false. Also your report function would have your code for displaying a popup.

again, not sure this is what you need to do, if you post your code it will be easier to help.
