I have some drop-down menus which are constructed from layers and I also have a poll which is called within an IFRAME on the same page with a .html extension. The problem that I'm having is that in some browsers (IE5.0) the layers appear under the IFRAME. I want the poll to display correctly without having to be on a page with a .asp extension.
You will find this for all versions of IE, not sure about NN
It also happens to flashobjects, selectboxes as well as IFRAMES. The only thing you can do is set the IFRAME to be hidden (style:display='none') when you use the layer.
Nothing else you can do I'm afraid, even MS do it this way
The browsers need to advance more to be able to handle DHTML menus. This is a widespread problem that needs to be addressed. Until then, use DHTML Menus at your peril.
I spent a couple of months trying to get them to work with a commercial site and in the end we had to take the decision not to use them because of this problem.

How do I go about setting the style:display='none' ?
