As far as I can tell, neither Yahoo nor Dynamic Drive are still using the type of tabs that they were when this thread was started last December. I looked over my archives and found this file dated from that time which uses the DD code from that period (we never take code from copyrighted sites like Yahoo, it was just mentioned as an example of how the OP wanted their menu to look). It may or may not be of use:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
#tablist{
padding: 3px 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-top: 0.1em;
font: bold 12px Verdana;
}
#tablist li{
list-style: none;
display: inline;
margin: 0;
position:relative;
}
#tablist li a{
padding: 3px 0.5em;
margin-left: 3px;
border: 1px solid #778;
border-bottom: none;
background: white;
}
#tablist li a:link, #tablist li a:visited{
color: navy;
}
#tablist li a.current{
background: lightyellow;
}
#tabcontentcontainer{
width: 400px;
/* Insert Optional Height definition here to give all the content a unified height */
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
.tabcontent{
display:none;
}
</style>

Tab it like Yahoo.
