JavaScript Mini-FAQ
Sooner, or later, as we start learning and using JavaScript, we will all have questions we want answered. One author, Danny Goodman, has compiled a list of typical questions people ask when starting out with JavaScript.

Re: Drop down Menus in Frames - I Need Help! |

I am working on such a beast. My limitation is trying to determine the X & Y location of the mouse. Once you know that you can open a small window which is X-# & X+#. The window should appear fairly well centered under the location the mouse was moved to. Or, if you know (via usage of a table) exactly how far across the menu item starts, then you can center the new window appropriately.
Alternatively, in NN4+ you could use layers to overlay the frame with a layer which contains the menu. The example of the flying balls in JavaScript Unleashed shows you how to move an image around. The same should be useful with text.
Hope this helps. :-)
