Web Frameset "Overlap"

Hi All,

I have got a “drop down” menu system from Rocky at www.lotusgeek.com and want to use it within my site.

I am using a frameset, problem being that if I put the menu in a frame, when you hover over it, it tries to drop down over the frame below with the options. The frame below, or any other frame for that matter will not allow the menu to display over it so you are able to make your selection.

Has anyone any ideas. I don’t want to make the frame big enough to accomodate as you then lose the space saving, clean looking benefit of using the drop down menus.

Any ideas/help much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Matt.

You have two choices: either redesign to avoid using framesets, or change the JS to create the normally-hidden part of the menu in the frame below the frame containing the top-level buttons. That second option means creating the layer (div) on-the-fly as you need it, since the page that you wrote the menu to might not be there when you want to press the buttons.
