DHTML Menu for applications adds a lot of whitespace?

Help regarding which script(EXACT NAME): DHTML Menu for applications

I am redesigning my site:


I love the new menu, but it has this odd problem, is there anyone else who has run into this?

I have an idea of what might be happening. It seems that as the browser is parsing the page, it places all my menu options somewhere off the page.

Then when I activate the menu tree, each subsequent time I view a level of options, you'll notice that the vertical scrollbar on the page gets shorter. As if those off-page items are being whisked into the Menu, and then stored elsewhere when finished.

The end result is that if I have a page that has data 1000 pixels high, the scrollbar is acting like I have ~1600 pixels (1000 pixels of data plus ~600 pixels of whitespace).

Thanks,
Bryan

Figured it out myself!

Evidently, the JS will call parts of the CSS when you init() the Menu Bar. I had just forgotten to link to the CSS at the beginning of the page, and was letting the JS do the format.

Adding the links to the menu-bar and menu-item CSS seems to have fixed it.

Thanks, this solved it for me too.
I have tried to figure out the reason of the white space issue for an hour now, and finally it works
