Drop-down menu help

**Bleach984** · 07-27-2006, 10:51 AM

I need some help. I have a drop-down menu that I need to go over a frame. Basicly it is a dropdown menu that when you hover over the menu it will display the submenu over a frame/window.

Is there a way to do this? And, if there is could someone help me out. I have no clue how to do this.
________________________________________________________________

Also in this menu when the menu drops down I have a colapsable menu that you can collapse so that the dropdown is smaller. For some reason when I click on the collapsable menu and when it starts to collapse the drop-down menu retracts and you have to make the drop-down restart and once that happens the collapsable menu is where it should be.. with the tab that I collapsed in a collapsed state. The same thing happens when I un-collapse the menu the drop down dissappears.

Is there a way to fix the That problem?

P.S: When I try the aforementioned problem(problem #2) in Firefox the menu with the collapsing subheaders it works fine. The problem is in I.E.

Also I have another problem, yes sorry for all of the problems, whem I try to view my site in Firefox I only get the first frame of my website. Wierd HUH?

Could some one help me out with this?
________________________________________________________________

If any of my problems were solved I would be soooooo grateful.(preferably the first 2 problems first) I hope they all can be by all you extremly-knowledgeable coders and scripters out there.
Thank you for your help!!!

I like to use this: (doesn't work in Mozilla though)

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
window.onload = function() {
link1.onmouseover = function() {
link1.style.border = "1px solid #000000"
pullOut(menu1)
}
link1.onmouseout = function() {
link1.style.border = "1px solid #4787D7"
pullIn(menu1)
}
menu1.onmouseover = function() {
link1.style.border = "1px solid #000000"
pullOut(menu1)
}
menu1.onmouseout = function() {
link1.style.border = "1px solid #4787D7"
pullIn(menu1)
}
link2.onmouseover = function() {
link2.style.border = "1px solid #000000"
pullOut(menu2)
}
link2.onmouseout = function() {
link2.style.border = "1px solid #4787D7"
pullIn(menu2)
}
menu2.onmouseover = function() {
link2.style.border = "1px solid #000000"
pullOut(menu2)
}
menu2.onmouseout = function() {
link2.style.border = "1px solid #4787D7"
pullIn(menu2)
}
}
function pullOut(id) {
id.style.display = "block"
}
function pullIn(id) {
id.style.display = "none"
}
</script>
<style type="text/css">
body {
margin-right:400;
font:16px tahoma
}
.link {
border:1px solid #4787D7;
width:100px;
padding:5;
font:10px verdana ref;
cursor:default;
margin-bottom:0
}
.menu {

width:100px;
padding:5;
font:10px verdana ref;
cursor:default;
display:none;
border-top:none;
margin-top:0;
background:white
}
</style>
</head>
