I've tried upgrading a client's site from v3 to v5, but the same problem appears. What's next for resolving this??

Cheers,
Joe

here is the old v3 site - http://www.socialjustice.org - and here is the v5 menu for the homepage - http://www.socialjustice.org/testmenu.php - note the problem with page length is the same in both.

Hi Joe,

In your css you are telling the page to be that high because you are setting the leftSideNav and rightSidNav divs at 5000px high. The rest of the page follows suit.

In your menu_data.js file you need to fix a couple of things. Add these to the style1 definition
Code:
separatorcolor="#CCFFFF";
separatorsize=1;overfilter="Fade(overlap=1.00, duration=0.2);Alpha(style=0, opacity=92);Shadow(color='#1A801A', direction=135, strength=0)";


And remove the effect things at the top, the overfilter is now a parameter in the menu so that takes the place of that. If you look at the aI strings you will see they end like this:
Code:
;;separatorsize=1")


note the double semi-colon. Remove the extra semi-colon and remove separatorsize=1, since you are putting that in the style1 definition, and then add a semi-colon after the ) It should end like this
Code:
;");


If you are interested in the filter effects there is an interactive filters demo to let you view the different filters and transitions on the menu.

Hope this helps. I'm splitting this topic to the version 5 support forum.

Ruth

Thanks

Thanks for the help - just goes to show what you miss when picking up someone else's code.

Cheers,
Joe
