Hello everyone,

This is my first post of many I'm sure. I downloaded a menu and it has a drop shadow behind it. The name of the file downloaded is "Vertical Plain Text Menu" In this menu it hasa drop shadow behind it. Can someone tell me how i would remove this.

Thank You,

Effects such as you mention are generated by code like this...
Code:
overfilter = "GradientWipe(WipeStyle=1,motion='forward',duration=0.4);Shadow(color='#202020', Direction=135, Strength=4)";
outfilter = "GradientWipe(WipeStyle=1,motion='reverse',duration=0.4);Shadow(color='#202020', Direction=135, Strength=4)";

You can simply comment out or remove these lines entirely.

Which file would I look in for this?

Hi,

John posted the coding in the menu_data.js file which applies the IE transitions and filters. That is only visible in IE. I know you're removing them but if you want to see other available things you can do with these try this demo tool.

menu_data.js.

With all due respect, you really need to do the suggested reading. While this system is not really difficult, it's also not something you can just jump into without at least some knowledge of its inner workings.
