Pop-up menu OVER frame

How can you get submenus (javascript pop-up menus) to pop over another frame. I have created a nice pop-up menu but it stays behind the mainframe.

Im new at this but I know there should be a way to get it to work with frames…

@gil_davisNov 18.2003 — [b]I know there should be a way to get it to work with frames[/b][/quote]Sorry, there isn't. An object cannot appear out of its own window or frame. You will have to plan your frames so that the "pop-up" menu is visible inside its own frame under all circumstances. Only another window would be able to appear on top of the frames.

@XinNov 19.2003 — i think ur best bet is to split the menu into top-menu in one frame and sub-menus in another frame, then implement some cross-frame control to make them work like one menu, like this example:
