Description
I am using a tabview controller to display my contents in tabbed format to the user when he visits a page, but unfortunately its not producing expected output because of some CSS conflicts i believe.
Have attached images to depict the exact happening. One image which shows the normal behavior of my tabview controller, whereas deco breaking the display.
FYI : the functionality part works fine.
Steps to reproduce :
1. Create a page with some title and menu string
2. And paste the below code in the content area
<style type="text/css">
/*margin and padding on body element
can introduce errors in determining
element position and are not recommended;
we turn them off as a foundation for YUI
CSS treatments. */
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
</style>

initTabView();
// This is the tricky part... The onLoad event is fired when the user
// comes back to the page using the back button. In this case, the
// actual tab that needs to be selected corresponds to the last tab
// selected before leaving the page, and not the initially selected tab.
// This can be retrieved using getCurrentState:
currentState = YAHOO.util.History.getCurrentState("tabview");
tabView.set("activeIndex", currentState.substr(3));

// Initialize the browser history management library.
try {

// not supported (Opera, or not A-grade) Degrade gracefully.
