"to make sure the sub menus show above form controls, we underlay each submenu with an iframe"

When I use the mouse wheel on IE to enlarge the page, the Iframe is showing on the right of the submenus. Is there a way to fix this?

Using another script wouldn't have helped. Form elements always poke
through overlapping elements in some browsers.

Your only practical solutions are -

* redesign the page so that this doesn't happen, or
* hide the form element when the submenu opens

This is part of the menu bar spry widget included in Dreamweaver CS3.
Functions quite well except for this anomality which of course does not appear in FF.
I could or should have used anotrher script but the site is all up now.
Not knowledgeable enough to edit the js file.
Thanks for your reply.

Wow - what a horrible hack. Where did you find that one?

Why not just hide the form element when the submenu opens (would require
custom js)?
