Code:

	<div id="vertical_slide" style="display:none;">

P.S. Change your title to a more descriptive one. See forum rules.

Oops, my bad. I did'nt read your post very well.

I'm having difficulty with this, i'll let you know how I goes.

Try putting onLoad="myVerticalSlide.hide();" in your <body> tag. Don't know if it works, CBA testing.

Aha, got it:

Code:

var myVerticalSlide = new Fx.Slide('vertical_slide').hide();

Add the highlighted in demo.js.

Code:

window.onLoad(status[myVerticalSlide.close])

Btw, a little off-topic. I've been a mootools freak for ages lol. I wonder what happened to their forum
