Looking at the source and CSS, the tabs are simply gifs used as
backgrounds to the actual text. If everything was plotted in the
order it appears in the source, the second row would overlay the
first as is presumably intended. It may simply be that Netsurf is not
following the order in which the tags appear in the source when it
lays out the page. I'm not sure that when html is rendered, it has to
be rendered in the order it occurs in the source.
