evi menu is the latest version of this hack, correct? (maybe is better to delete the older version or rename the file)

anyway good improvements ... just a request: it's possible to move the 'evi menu' from the home page into the settings page?

Sorry about this.

I have the same problem if I use IE8, I can do to fix it?

Yes, once that happens, I will take the install route.

Is there a way to have the drop-down navbar buttons 'open' when the user hovers their mouse over them rather than clicking the button for the drop-down menu?

Cheers.

anyway to make the actual tabname a link too?

i.e if you called your Tab "FORUM" if the user clicked the word it would go forum.php. then if they clicked the arrow it would be dropdown menu
