... but not when they result in complete failure and 3 trips to Maplins.

My computer has started acting a little randomly, so I decided to (quickly) finish the project I've been working on for a year and a half:

It has:

• Intel Core 2 quad, 2.4Ghz
• Asus P5K3 Deluxe WiFi Motherboard (P35 Chipset)
• OCZ Platinum DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
• MSI 2600XT Graphics Card
• 1TB of Samsung (Spinpoint) storage
• Zalman CNPS9500 LED CPU Fan (Cheers Bro!)
• Nesteq Semi-Fanless 620W PSU
• Vista Business
• Antec P180 case

It flies, and it's really quiet!

I think I've outgeeked myself...I feel like this:

I've been looking at tab systems for breaking up large chunks of information within a web page. This benefits the viewer by not needing to reload the web page to view the different bits of content and also by removing the need to scroll through reams of content.

I found two scripts on the internet.

DOMtab and Tabifier - both of which have their pluses and minuses.

DOMtab (v3.1415927) works well on first look, apart from the fact if you place a div within the tabs, the tabs stop working, the only way around this I could see was to create spans and assign them as block level. Not good if you have ready made content you want to put in the tabs. I also couldn't figure out a way to link directly to the different tabs, one of the key things I needed for this project.

DOMtab however, is the more search engine friendly option as it doesn't require the use of Javascript for links...If you can get over the fact you can't link directly to the tabs. It's also fairly easy to style using CSS.

Tabifier, uses Javascript to display the tabs, however if Javascript is turned off, the whole page is still viewable, the tabs just disappear. You can use Javascript to link to different tabs as well. As the tabs are created using Javascript it's a bit more fiddly to style...But for me the better option.

See here for the results.
