Tigra Gold - Frame problem

I have just started using Targa gold today so this may be a simple question but here goes.

I created a menu and copied the support files to the correct directory. I created a file called left.htm with the menu in it and it works perfectly when I open the file directly. However, when I create a frameset that has left.htm as one of the frames I get an error icon in the lower left side of my IE 6.0 window and the menu does not show up. When I double click on the error message I get the following message:
--------------------------
Line: 1
Char: 1
Error: Object does not support theis property or method.
I created a frame set
URL File://c:documents and settingsjdalglieshdesktopmenuleft.htm
-----------------------------

Any idea why it works on its own but not in the frame?
Thanks,
Jeff

This is the left.htm code

the menu is initialized differently when used with frames. Without frames you initialize it as described at:

http://www.softcomplex.com/products/tigra_menu_gold/docs/#construct_sframe

with frames:

http://www.softcomplex.com/products/tigra_menu_gold/docs/#construct_mframe

if the menu will not overlap the frame border you can initialize it like this:

<script language="JavaScript">
new menu (MENU_ITEMS, MENU_POS, {'frames' : [[]]});
</script>
