Upgrade Information- previous versions to version 3.5)

To upgrade the menu from previous versions (mainly v3.4.1.1b to v3.5), simply upload all files EXCEPT "custom.js" to your web server, replacing the older versions. "Custom.js", which controls your menu links, do not need to be replaced. However, to take advantage of unique features in v3.5 (such as custom coloring for a specific menu item), you'll need to add a few new variables to custom.js. For full changes to version 3.5 and upgrade information, see the v3.5 change log.
