Delightfully Cherished rework

Massive rework over at Delightfully Cherished; I'm now feeling like I'm actually learning CSS. If anyone's running a wacky browser and wants to see if I'm totally off my nut, I welcome bug reports.

Looks good in Konqueror (does that count as wacky anymore?), assuming that the 'Trust Cuffs' tab is supposed to be slightly "in front" of the others.

The tab "forward" should be whatever page (or set of pages) you're currently on.

But, yeah, Konqueror was one of my test browsers...

I dunno of this is what John meant, but the Trust Cuffs tab is actually about 2 or 3 pixels lower than (making it look more in front of) the other tabs, whether it's selected or not - at least in Firefox 0.9.2 (Windows).

The upper left corner of the tab also sticks up above the rest of the tab. Let me know if you want a screenshot.

In Firefox 0.9.1 (linux x86_64), the links work, but I noticed two things:

The "story" link adds another line at the top of the page, which makes the whole page shift down. None of the other pages do that.
The mouse-over drop down menus don't work. If I click on the tab, then I get a drop down. If I just hover, the drop downs never appear.

also works the same on 32-bit firefox.

Shawn, I think it's because of that superscript "tm", but, yeah, a screenshot would be nice

Flushy, thanks, on #1 I'll grab Firefox on my other Linux box and see this effect, on #2 the menus are actually click-to-drop on everything.
