Formatting problem with Vertical Spry Menubar with Frameset

Question

I have a frameset, which includes a Top Frame, with a nested
Left Frame, and a nested bottom frame after that. I also have a
vertical spry menubar in this left frame. When I click on an item
to view it's submenu, the center frame of the page cuts of a
significant portion of the submenu. I want the page to appear, so
that when you click on an item to view it's submenu, the submenu
appears past the frame's border, without having to set it up so
that the frame width is relevant to the use of the spry menubar
within it.
I talked to a Tech Support person today over the phone, and
he told me to post here and ask for someone to post custom code for
this.
If anyone can help, it would save me so much grief, and I
would be very greatful!

Answer 1

There is no practical way to make a positioned page element
as you have in
the Spry menus 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. DUMP THE FRAMES - you would not be having this problem in
a non-framed
site.
I recommend either #1 or #4, depending on what your needs
are. You just
have no idea the horrors that await you if you continue with
the frames.....
