well please forgive me for some advertisement : ) but you might want to take a look at an alternative which is as good as the HM menu and even better when it comes to cross-frame support:

http://www.yxscripts.com/menuG4/index.html

with menuG4, you can :
- hard-code a static menu content, or generate dynamic contents on-the-fly and then build a menu on it
- position your menu with some absolute coordinates, against some relative place holder, or with some pre-defined spots (say the top-right browser corner)
- show your menu vertically or horizontally and fly-out the sub-menus to any direction
- scroll-into-view the long menus
- apply special styles to some menu items (item-level styling)
- use images as menu items, and use image icons in menu items
- use background images for menu items
- have more styles on menu and item borders: solid, outset and inset

for cross-frame menus, you can also :
- split the menu into two frames (well, the script does that for you actually, you just need to place a js call in the nav-frame page to tell the script to show the top-level menu there) or use some links in one frame to trigger the menus in another frame
- show the sub-menus in dynamic content-frames (say you have the top-menu in top-frame and sub-menus in bottom-frame, and later you load another frameset into the bottom-frame and still want the sub-menus show up in a new content-frame)

and it's free and all i ask is just a link back to my site : )

plus, menuG5 is coming out, which let's you use external CSS for menu styling.


thanks,

[Xin]

forgot to mention that, you also get a menu editor to compose the menu content and menu style, and preview it.

cheers,
