    <p>I guess the armies will take on the »ditch your frames« thing, so I won't. I'm assuming you have informed yourself of frameless alternatives and have come to the conclusion that you need frames (for whatever [absurd] reason).</p> <p>The short story is: you cannot break out of a frame, same as you can't break out of a window. All content is contained within the frame / window - there is no way to have content bleed through.</p> <p>That said, you have two options left.</p> <ol> <li>Your parent document happens to be a regular document containing two iframes, and all documents are served from the same host (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy" rel="noreferrer">SOP</a>). In this case your menu-frame can create elements in the parent-frame that actually overlap the iframes themselves. So you could position an element within the parent-frame to appear below the corresponding element of the menu-frame, while having it z-indexed over the content-frame</li> <li>Your parent-frame is a frameset-document and thus doesn't take any content other than frames. You're shit out of luck. The only thing you can do is have your menu-frame do the same trick described in (1), but append the menu-elements to the content-frame.</li> </ol> <p>Either option sucks. If you have the option, ditch your frames. Any dumb server-side language (php, ruby, python, …) allows you to extract often re-used components (like a navigation) into seperate files and link them in every other document you've got. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Side_Includes" rel="noreferrer">SSI</a> might be an option, too.</p>
