4 VB, HTML and Template Questions

[H3C x Nevz]

1.When you go to a users' profile, it automatically goes to the first tab. I don't want to change that, I'd just like to know if there is a URL for going to a specific tab. Is that possible?
2. For some reason, my HTML isn't working for me. Below is a part of my postbit - could someone please show how they'd properly give it an orange border?
<if condition="$show['avatar']"><td class="alt2"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$post[avatarurl]" $post[avwidth] $post[avheight] alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="1"/></a></td></if>
3. Is there any way to add things to the middle of the postbit (the blank area between the avatar and all of the right-aligned info?
4. When I upgrade from 3.8.1 to 3.8.3, do I lose anything like mods or template modifications?

Thanks for all your help.

1) Add &tab=aboutme to the end.. Change aboutme to reflect the name of the tab you want to link to. You can change the order permanently by editing the MEMBERINFO template.

2) Add the proper CSS to the link (<a>) code.

3) Should be able to if you edit the postbit template. Don't have the exact HTML in front of me though.

4) If you revert edited templates, you will lose template modifications. It depends on the mod whether it will continue to work but there shouldn't be a problem with most of them.

Thanks. I still need help with 1 and 2 though. My tab for #1 is titled Works In Progress, and regardless of whether I use "&tab=worksinprogress" or "&tab=works in progress," it sitll just goes to the first tab. I've tried using "style="color:orange"" in the <a> part of the avatar code, but it didn't change anything.
