There's a Guitar Techniques tutorial by Dario Cortese (if you've not seen it already) on Slap Guitar - it's somewhere on the web and it's pretty good Wink

Good luck.

You'll see, in the middle of the slapping/popping, you use your left hand to tap the strings and produce the sound.
So it would be:
pop,hammer on,slap,left hand, slap, left hand, and repeat.
It's not that hard, i learned to slap in bass but it's quite the same on guitar.
