Well I beleve that it is not possible to have a javascript drop down menu drop over a frame! Did you mean javascript? If its a basic HTML menu then it already does. Hope that helps. :D

Hi Travstar...

I know of a javascript-generated menu that contains documentation on how to use it with frames so that it will bleed-over into an adjacent frame.

I never tried it myself (I'm a "frames-free" girl!), but you might try this link:

The documentation is in the ZIP file that is accessed via a link on the page (about mid-way down... under the code-box).

Good luck! :)

versions 6> of IE and NS both will display menu overlaping the iframe,and yes,if there has to be a frame,i'd say inline(iframe) frame is a better choice..
iframes will respect the css properties just as any other element on the page,
