Mano70 posted an excellent link for making a website in another thread:

have a look, choose your CSS Layout (I guess you want two columns, left sidebar..)


Make a practice page, upload it somewhere, and post the url so we can look at it....

Cheers,

AFAIK, it's impossible to have a layer float ouside a frame.

A solution would be to change the frames to iframes and control the floating layer from the top document.

A more difficult way is to calculate how much of the layer is shown in the one frame, and show a clipped version of the same layer in the other frame. That takes serious coding and I doubt it will work smoothly.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
