Hi,

This is not a directly a django question, but since django is the only
web framework I know (and it's really cool, by the way!) I hope it's
ok to post this here.

Could someone advise me on the "best" way to do tabs?  IE, I'd like to
have a set of tabs at the top of my page with a sub navigation bar
below.  I am currently using a mechanism that I got from the pinax
project - I use css similar to that in tabs.css, for those of you that
know pinax.  That css controls how the html classes are set up when
html is rendered for a particular tab, causing the tabs to look
"pressed" at the appropriate times.

I'm a newbie at web page design, so I don't have a good feeling for if
this is the right direction to be pursing.  I find the css code and
the way it interacts with site_base.html and base.html fairly
confusing and hard to maintain, so I'm wondering if there is a better
way.  Also (and more importantly) would like my tabs to be more
dynamic.  For example, based on the user clicking on something, I
would like to be able to add additional tabs.  It seems like using the
css mechanism in pinax makes that very difficult, because the css for
each tab has to be defined up front in order to get the shading right
when you click on a tab.

Can anyone advise me on what the best direction to go in is for having
nice tabs that are easy to undrestand?

I have not yet learned jquery or ajax, but they are on my list,
perhaps those provide better frameworks than css?  Anyway, any
pointers from those of you more experienced than me are appreciated!

Margie
