    Hi

    I'm having an issue with my mediawiki site in both firefox and opera.

    the tabs in IE are aligned the way I want them but if you open the site http://domainerpedia.org in firefox or opera the tabs are shown above the logo, which was a pain in itself to re-position.

    I spoke to someone on the mwusers forum and they said its an issue which needs specific fixes for each browser, which I allready knew myself and i've received no further assistance from them so If anyone here is familiar with mediawiki id be very grateful for any help. I cant offer any money unfortunatelu though, so please dont expect any.

    On IE8, the tabs are also aligned above the top. Which browser is IE inline with. 7? 6? I have neither on my laptop.

    The problem, as always, is IE. It may be showing what you want but FF and Opera are showing what you wrote. You are witnessing an IE bug. Never use IE to check your markup.

    In the CSS for the div id #p-cactions, change 'position:absolute' to 'position:relative' and see if that's what you want.
