I was using Adobe Dreamweaver CS4. I’ve created another totally blank functions.php file via notepad and the problem apparently is solved.

I’ve already re-inserted my code on my new functions.php file and it’s now working, the space is gone.

Can you tell me what was going on with Dreamweaver? Why there is that space when the file is created via Dreamweaver?

Thanks for the help!

It doesn’t change anything, the space still remains when there is a functions.php (blank) file in the folder

Have you checked your css files?

The space still remains

Do you know css?

You can edit your style.css file. But first, you’ll need to know what is the class name or id for the dropdown menu.
If you use Firebung (Firefox plugin), you can see what is the name of the dropdown menu class or id.

After getting YOUR-NAME with Firebug, go to your css file, and find something like:

.YOUR-NAME ul or .YOUR-NAME or #YOUR-NAME ul or #YOUR-NAME and edit the width attribute.

I think that will solve the problem

Here is my function file:

<?php
function excerpt_ellipse($text) {
   return str_replace('[...]', '<div class="readmore"> <a href="'.get_permalink().'">Read more...</a></div>', $text); }
add_filter('the_excerpt', 'excerpt_ellipse');
?>

And that’s it.

It’s just a script to replace the […] from the excerpt with a Read More link
