Frames and popup menus

My navbar is in a frame down the left hand side of the window.

The frame is 150px wide and the navbar buttons are 100px wide.

Hovering over the buttons displays popup menus to the right of the navbar
and, being 100px wide menus, are cut off by the right hand edge of the
navbar frame.

Is it possible to make the popup menus display on top of the neighbouring
frame? If not, is there another solution?

Thanks in anticipation.

Roger

Yep, that is what happens when you try to display content outside the
window.

Yes, stop using frames. Then you don't have the problem. Use Server Side
code to include the menu in all pages.
