I see, the frame holding the menu is too small. No, you can't change this behavior, because the menu content is part of the frame's document.
If I found myself with this problem, I would find a way to do away with frames. For example, I would explore using <div> tags to segment the content sections.
If you control the content of both frames, you can do something a bit clever: have the rollover elelemnts in the top frame, but have the menu's themselves in the bottom frame. The rollover code can access elements in the second frame, so that's not a problem.

The frames of the application must stay.
I cannot make parts of the menu appear in the other frame either for the reason that on my actual page there are 3 columns under the space where the menu is and there is something right under the menu in the same frame. There would be a gap between the menu and the dropdowns.
