DW/FW popup always appears UNDER iframe

Hey all,

I have an annoying problem with my iFrame and Popup menu created in
Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I made a layout and the topmenu has a vertical popup
menu. Everytime when I test the page the menu appears under the iFrame. How can
I fix this easily?

There is no practical way to make a layer (that's how drop-down menus work)
cross the boundary between two separate frames (i.e., two unique HTML
pages).

It is true. Your choices are limited now -

1. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in a non-framed
site.
2. Redesign your menus so that they do not need to span a frame boundary.
3. Redesign the frameset so that you leave enough room for the largest
popup.
4. Move the layer code for the popups from the page in the navigation frame
to each page in the content frame.
5. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in a non-framed
site.

I recommend either #1 or #5, depending on what your needs are. You just
have no idea the horrors that await you if you continue with the frames.....

And as for the pop-ups, well, there are much better ways -
