accessing the menu with javascript // problems in netscape/mozilla derivatives

I have a menu placed right above an iframe on my webpage. In IE everything works great, but in netscape derivatives when I move the mouse off a submenu (which has to overlap the iframe) onto the iframe the menu won't disappear until I move the mouse off the iframe back onto the main page.

Does anyone know how to get around this? Is there some way I can access the menu object in the html with javascript or something. This would be useful for various other reasons, but I was thinking you could call the mouseout function of the menu object manually.

Please help. Thanks.

1) Do you use Tigra menu Gold? What version of the netscape do you use?
2) For getting access to the menu object you can use the constructor:

Code:

var var_name = new menu(MENU_ITEMS, MENU_POS);

I experience the same problem using Mozilla Firefox (v1.0), the subitems remain visible. I have the standard version of Tigra Menu (v2.0). Is there a simple solution to this problem?

Thanks!

Free version of the product is not guaranteed to work across the frame borders. In case of Firefox mouseout event is not generated by the borowser when mouse pointer is over other document. Not likely access to menu object will help to resolve this issue without inserting the javascript code into the document loaded into the iframe.

Sorry for the somewhat late reply (was expecting an "email on reply", but didn't receive one).

tigra: Could you please explain how to "resolve this issue" in a little more details?

Thank you!
