Hi Matthew,



Wow... That IE bug was a bit obscure !

Anyway, it should now be fixed. Anyone who is interested:

But I am wondering about the left navbar. It is requisite on SourceCast--but not technologically necessary. It can be removed, as a one-off for OOo. The reason to remove it and have a double tab bar: To locate all key information in one area. Right now, visitors going to the site will see the left navbar, good, but may miss the top navbar. We could enlarge the fonts, or area for the top navbar--it still seems a little crammed to me on XP (firefox) and OS X (safari), anyway--or locate the key information in a double top navbar, with one, the top, being tabbed, the bottom not.

The majority of people who were taught to read left to right, will notice or glance starting top left to top right, i.e. diagonally across the screen. Perhaps if the left nav bar was seen to be part of the tabbed structure, there will be some continuity and guidance of your eye. See: www.jini.org for an example where they have used the same colour for the left nav bar and top tabbed menu.


Then there is www.netbeans.org that uses large detached buttons displayed topmost.

Regards
Jacqueline
