Re: [WSG] Skip Navigation Visibility

 I've seen a couple of sites with a very nice tab interface whereby the 
 'skip' link became visible on the first tab, but was hidden if that 
 didnt happen.

I like the idea and used it myself in a recent procject, but I've never
been able to get Opera cooperating.
a:focus works in other browser but Opera seems not to use these styles
when keyboard activated via a or q. Does anyone know more about this
issue?

Re: [WSG] height problem in firefox

Please take a look at that and maybe you can find out why the white 
background is not rendering OK in Firefox.
The CSS: http://eutest.cpea.ro/stiluri/layout.css
#main doesn't have any non-floating and hence height relevant content. 
You might try adding some clearing element at the end of #container, 
after #main or just add float: left to the definition of #container.
I tried this via edit-styles bookmarklet in Mozilla and it works, I 
think there shouldn't be any problems with other browsers, but check.

Have a look at Eric Meyer's Containing Floats article to understand 
what's happening.

Re: [WSG] Mozilla and lack of URL wrapping

IE6 wraps long URL's at spaces ( ), hyphens (-), question marks (?)
and percent signs (%), whereas Mozilla doesn't wrap unbroken strings at
all. In the crazy world of CMS's and unpredictable 'cowboy' content
editors this can be a bit of a problem for multi-column portal sites. Is
there any way to make Mozilla play nice without resorting to a
server-side solution?
AFAIK nothing that works cross-Browser.
There are several CSS3-properties that should influence line-breaks.
Rather complicated and probably a long way to implementation.

http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/CR-css3-text-20030514/#linefeed-treatment
There are some special unicode characters - not supported by IE and 
hence not applicable.

IE's line-breaking behaviour is nothing others should imitate. See
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/html/nobr.html
The text discusses primarly the opposite problem: Keeping IE from 
line-breaking, but is also informative for your problem.

IMHO the only chance to handle the problem is server-sided.
