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

Im sorry.

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.

I have a design where the page is divided into two frames. The top frame is just one line tall and is to contain a menu. The bottom frame is again divided into three frames (left, middle, right).

I found out that it is possible to have a menubar in one...

My simple popup menu code works in IE (Windows and Mac) but not in Safari. I use a onmouseover ShowMenu function and a onmouseout HideMenu function. Because Safari, unlike IE, recognises (correctly) text nodes within the element nodes, the functions run twice as often. If the onmouseover is to or the onmouseout is to a text node then the functions return false and do nothing. But because so many functions are being triggered, if the...

I have run into the problem of MS seemingly dropping support for custom popup menus in Access 2007. My app heavily uses popup menus and suddenly I can not even change a typeo in a popup menu or add additional functionality. Am I seeing this wrong or is there a way to change an existing popup menu in Access 2007? Sheesh, first Vista, now this....... do I have ANY options here?

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
