    pop-up menu over frames

    I want a Fireworks popup menu to appear accross a frame boundary.
    Do I need to paste certain java script in all of the content html pages that
    appear in the main frame if the pop-up menu originates from a top bar frame?

    Cheers

      You can't do that with frames, normally. But there are two ways to
      acheive the effect that I can think of:
      MSIE has the popup DOM object that can be used for that sort of thing.
      See <http://msdn.microsoft. com/workshop/author/om/popup_overview. asp>.

      The second way, which is in better practice, is to use SSI and CSS fixed
      positioning. See
      <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/visuren.html#fi xed-positioning>.

          The third, and better solution, is to ditch the frames altogether.

              I think that might have been the second solution referred to above:
              SSI and fixed position.
