Sorry i am an IA student. Therefore has not much knowledge on how to describe this error detaily.
Please forgive me for any inconvience cause.

I was using 2 Frames on my project.
The upper frame consists of a Mouseover dropdown menu.
The lower frame contains a list of my data.

When i mouseover the menu, it appears only in the upperframe.

Problems is while i scroll down my lower frame and i mouseover the dropdown menu, the menu did not appear. I have to scroll up the lower frame to find the menu.

Does anyone knows how to make the dropdown menu appear when i mouseover it o.O ?

if it is correctly done (by setting up the z-index property appropriately),it should overlap the iframes.(all generation 6+ browsers)

Other then that you have no simple way that I know of..sorry

it looks like a cross-frame menu, the sub-menu is rendered in the lower frame, setting the z-index might not help.

may be u can take a look at my menu which might have better cross-frame support:

when the menu is blocked by the lower frame, mouseout or click some blank area to hide the menu then hover the item again to bring back the menu in right place.

thx.
