Hi,
I did that and it doesn't work... Still goes to leaders board by default... Maybe it's necessary to change some more code...

[bILLY]

love you lol

[Riccardo Rossini]

excellent

[frankie]

when I tried the code one of my tabs ended up on the bottom left. I am using the 3 column layout but the tabs do not seem to fit. Would I just change the width 122px to something smaler?
