layer over frame border

[Tino Langer]

Hello,

I try to draw a layer (a div-area) in a frame - everything is right. But if
the frame is to small to draw the whole layer, the layer is cutted off at
the frame border. Is it possible to say, that the layer is drawn in
absolutely front off all frames?

Thanx for help - Tino

Not in HTML. IE 5.5 and 6 allow you to use script to create popup
windows that span frame boundaries, see

I am not sure it helps for what you try to achieve, check the links. If
you have further questions on that then they are best asked in a group
about MSIE and scripting, there are several on that on the MS news server.
