Navbar rollovers are hidden by mainFrame??

Hi,
I am using Frames, my leftFrame holds my nav bar. the mainFrame is the target
for my content.
Problem: my rollovers are hidden by the mainFrame...??
I tried using Layers with a high z-index, that did not correct it, it too was
hidden.
DW-MX, Mac-OS X.3.
Someone please?
Thank You,

Matt:

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.....
