Copongcopong's Under Tabs

Author: Copongcopong

Comments: Works best as an "under tab" where in information is over the tabs. This uses the border-size and padding trick so that the tabs does not "jerk" when hover. See the code for details.

ABOUT THE CODE
Some lists within the Listamatic site had to be modified so that they could work on Listamatic's simple list model. When in doubt, use the external resource first, or at least compare both models to see which one suits your needs.
