Hi,
I have a frames website made up of a top frame and main frame. I have a dhtml drop down menu on the top frame, when i move the mouse over the trigger the menu falls behind the main frame (below the top frame)
Has anyone got any ideas how to make the menus fall infront of the main frame?

thanks in advance

 
ive designed the menu in fireworks incidentally!!

thanks
 
it can be done with javascript -- but i cannot remember where i saw the code -- thats a hack though wouldnt you rather do this right -- dump the frames man

but try google to see if you can find the snippet of code

Listen All I ask is that You close out a Post You Started!!!!
 
can anyone else help!! i cannot find the code anywhere!
 
You cannot have HTML elements extend across frames generated by <FRAMESET>

The exception might be FORM/INPUT elements but this may be browser dependent.

You can, however, make one element overlap other inline elements which may include the <IFRAME> and <ILAYER>. Those elements can be used to mimmick your <FRAMESET>.
