Multiple frames is always a problem because the layers can only exist in
one page at a time. I cannot afford to spend time writing a version that
works across frames, but you are welcome to write one yourself.

If not, I'm sure BrotherCake would be happy to adapt his for you:

or you could use DreamWeaver, which has a multi-frame menu built in (that
does not have very good browser support)

Some problems you will encounter:
Every page in the frameset will need to embed scripts to generate their
part of the menu.
If you load pages from other people's sites into the frameset, the menu
will not appear.
If the script requires other frames to load first, the script will produce
errors unless you are VERY careful.


Sorry I cannot be of any more help, but as my scripts are provided for free,
I simply cannot afford to spend too much time working on them.
