dhtml dropdown menu over frames?

[crab_juice]

I'm wondering if it's possible to have a DHTML dropdown menu display over a frame. I could swear that i've seen it done, but I can't remember where.

Now I'm faced with having to do that myself!

Any thoughts?

Thanks x 1,000,000!!!:)

A DHTML object is restricted to the window (or frame) that it was created in. It cannot appear over another frame or outside the perimeter of the browser window.

I could swear that i've seen it done, but I can't remember where.If you remember, let us know and we can tell you what technology it was.

See the cross frame examples here:

It is done by ******* DHTMLMenu.

******* DHTMLMenu is just using cross-frame scripting to display the menu inside the frame rather than actually displaying a menu OVER the frame.

You should not be using frames anyway, if you want a scrolling box within your site USE THE CSS OVERFLOW PROPERTY!

If you use a fixed sized div with the CSS overflow:auto; property all your nice DHTML menus, no matter which ones they are, will overlap the scrolling content regardless of whether it is loaded, loading, or erroring- what happens when ******* DHTML Menu hits a 404? Your navigation goes byebye- additionally you will not be able to pop up a menu and then scroll it about ala *******.

Genuine frames have one place only - displaying content that is changing frequently so that the spontanous reloads not interfere with the rest of the site. In this case you will probably use inline frames, which DHTML menus should overlap anyway.
