here's what i've done with my CSS file too:

.djdot{
font: bold 13px Arial;
width: 100%; /*leave this value as is in most cases*/
margin: auto;
}
.djdot ul{
 padding: 0;
}
.djdot ul li{
 display: inline;
 background:  url(djdotbg.png) center center;
 background-repeat: no-repeat;
 float: left;
}
.djdot ul li a{
 float: left;
 color: white;
 padding: 5px 11px;
 text-decoration: none;
 background:  url(djdotbg.png) center center;
 background-repeat: no-repeat;
 margin: auto;
}
.djdot ul li a:visited{
color: white;
background:  url(djdotbg.png) center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.djdot ul li a.selected{
color: white;
padding-top: 6px; /*shift text down 1px*/
padding-bottom: 4px;
background: url(djdotbg2.png) center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

.tabcontentstyle{ /*style of tab content oontainer*/
border: 1px solid gray;
width: 450px;
margin-bottom: 1em;
padding: 10px;
}
.tabcontent{
display:none;
}

/* removing the active/focus dotted border */

  to the link itself and not any containing elements WHEN THOSE
  ELEMENTS HAVE A POSITION ABSOLUTE! */
  width:0; height:0;
  outline:0; /* for browsers that understand */
  }
