I think what he meant was: the tabs don't highlight on hover in IE, and how to get around that.
If I wasn't knackered (and heck, it's 1:34 in the morning here), I'd spend a few minutes devising a javascript solution (or completely reorganising the xhtml so that the A element is the one containing all the backgrounds, so the :hover can take effect in IE), but I'd give the IE7.htc behaviours a whirl with this, they should be able to give IE the :hover on any element (but yes, this effectively still relies on having js enabled) Patrick H.
