How to overlay view over navigation controller bar?

I've sorta got a little problem. I'm trying to add a popoverview to my app but part of the popoverview get's hidden by my navigation controller bar. How can I make my popoverview overlay over top of the navcontrollerbar? Here's an image of the problem: http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/4056/viewn.jpg

Here's my code I'm working with:

- (IBAction)onButtonClick:(UIButton *)button {

if (self.popoverController) {
    [self.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
    self.popoverController = nil;
    [button setTitle:@"Show Popover" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} else {
    UIViewController *contentViewController = [[WEPopoverContentViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];

    self.popoverController = [[[WEPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:contentViewController] autorelease];
    [self.popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:button.frame 
                                            inView:self.view 
                          permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionDown
                                          animated:YES];
    [contentViewController release];
    [button setTitle:@"Hide Popover" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
}
}

Is there anyway to make this popover above the navigation controller bar?

Hopefully someone knows how to fix this problem, Thanks in advance.

ohh..I got it..I changed line in function 

- (void)presentPopoverFromRect:(CGRect)rect 
                    inView:(UIView *)theView 
  permittedArrowDirections:(UIPopoverArrowDirection)arrowDirections 
                  animated:(BOOL)animated {

in WEPopOverController from [keyView addSubview:backgroundView]; to [theView addSubview:backgroundView];

Could this be related to the inView parameter to WEPopoverController presentPopoverFromRect:inView:permittedArrowDirections:animated:? Instead of presenting it in self.view could you present further up in the view hierarchy (like in self.view.window)?
