Is it possible to set the Z-Order of IFrames?

I've got a DHTML menu which drops down when clicked. The object of the menu is to redirect an IFrame to the selected page. However the menu falls behind the IFrame despite having a Z-Order of 100. Does nayone know a way around this?
 
its z-index... not z-order. but, i think iframes are windowed controls.. meaning nothing can be on top of them except other windowed controls.. so, you can use a scriptlet for your menu to get it on top of the iframe. adam@aauser.com
 
lucid, you are kinda right, and kinda not.

IE5(.5?) allows for z-indexing of IFRAMES (read: they are no longer windowed controls) jared@aauser.com -
 
that's wonderful.. that means my BrowserWindow object will not look retarded when you drag another one on top of it. adam@aauser.com
