Tabs of variable height - ver. 2

Originally done as explained in this post, and then updated with better code.

The core of this slanted tab placement is this:

#tabs li {
	float: left;
}

#tabs li.tab {
	float: right;
}

#tabs li.tab a {
	background: url( images/toptabr.gif ) no-repeat 0 0;
	margin-right: -1px;
	margin-top: -7px;
	padding: 12px 1.2em 12px 1em;
}

Take a look in the source for the full styling and required hacks for IE.

There is also a left-2-right variant.
