      Return to Recent Questions The submenus of the cross frame menu are offset by about 100 pixels to the right. 
 
 Q:
 I got the menu to display across frames, but it displays differently in Firefox & Mozilla
vs.  Internet Explorer.  Is that to be expected?
 
 In The Mozilla-based browsers, the submenu butts right up
under the main menu � which is how I want it.  In IE, it is about
 10 pixels below.
 
 Also, I can�t get the submenus to drop down directly under
 the main menus � they are offset by about 100 pixels to the right.
 
 A:
The problem is in a structure of your frameset.
 Mozilla browsers can't determine absolute coordinates for a frame, so
submenus drop down with an offset.
 
 You should create the following frameset structure:
 
 --|------------
     |   menu
 --|------------
    |
     |  submenus
    |
 
 Now a top row has 2 columns and all browsers can determine a
width of the 1st column in the second row.
