How can I style the top tabs on the wiki, the ones with the boxes around them (eg page, discussion)?
I need to set the widths and margins and can't find the style that controls them in main.css.
RUN, don't walk, down to http://www.westciv.com/xray/xray_more.html and download XRAY (free).
It's a javascript tool that has changed my life. You stick it on a bookmark, and when you run it, a window pops up, prompting you to click on any element on the web page. It then displays all its attributes, including all the information you need to find it in your CSS file
In less than an hour with this tool (and a nice CSS editor: "CSSEdit," Mac-only, but there are great ones for Linux and Windoze, I'm sure) I managed to make a MediaWiki site look like a plain-Jane website.
Sorry I don't have THE answer, but this tool will answer your question, and many more into the future.
