It's not possible due to the DOM.  Each frame is actually a window object,
and your layer's are contained inside that window object.

It would seem that there could possibly be a work around by writing your
HTML to the parent window. But I think the window objects (frame windows)
contained within it would over-write the DHTML.  I also think that you are
unable to have an actual functioning document object (that would contain
your layers) in the parent window that defines the frameset.

In other words - no - I don't think there is a way to have layers "overlay"
a frame - 'least that I know of  =)
