Thanks for awesome tips Mecca.

Excellent tab setup here 4x4, thanks a lot for taking the time to explain this for us.

unfortunately, it doesn't appear to work with IE 8 Beta. Can someone check their install of this to see what it's doing?

Have you turned on the IE 7 Compatibility mode option inside the Admin CP?

Where is that?

vBulletin Options > Server Settings (IIRC)

To get the link to open in a new browser window, what you do is add the target="_blank" attribute to your link tag, like this in your Menu Links area

<li><a href="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span>UK Business Live</span></a></li>

If you do that to the ones that you want to open in a new window, then you don't navigate away from your site ;)

:D
