Simple Menu Problem

[nrastogi]

Hi guys,

I have an URGENT question for you, please respond immediately if you could think of the answer or any sort of input. Any help is highly appreciated.

Scenario:
I have a website that was using table. The struc. would look like as follows
<TR>

<TD>
This the place the navigation bar appears, that has menus and for those menu there are popup menus. As soon as you mouse-over to those menus, a popup box (sub menus) appears on the edge of those menus.
</TD>
<TD>
REST OF THE SITE
</TD>

</TR>


Now, we just bought some application, which is FRAME based and it's main contents has to be in a frame.

What we have done is moved create a page with FRAMES that has two frames, one for navigation menu and other for the &quot;new application&quot; and our old contents.

If I copy the javascript that displays menus, the popups are getting cut in half. If I make the size of the left frame bigger, I loose the contents of the main frame.

Questions:
1) What is the best way to deal this situation?

2) Can I overlay the popups on the top of both frames, if yes how? Those popups are created using FireWorks and DreamWeaver (uses javascript)

3) How could I dynamically call those menu popups on the start (left) edge of the main frame, or ending (right)edge of the navigation frame.


Thanks a lot in advance.

popups cannot span over 2 frames.

you could have the popups openeing below rather than on the right but Im not sure how that would work.
or you could make a cascading menu like those on
