Tabbed CSS only website template

Tabbed CSS only website template Did you know what a small anchor link can do for you? More, than you might think. You can turn it into an advanced navigation on your website. There is nothing new in this, it was designed to do this. This only make sense, if the scrollbars are visible in your browser, isn't it? Well, no. Anchor links even work, when the invisible content is in an overflow: hidden container. The target element should have the same ID as the anchor link's href attribute.

   Very very long text... images... forms... btw my over flow is hidden...
   

       I'm invisible by default, 
       but your click just revealed me. :)
This is really nice, but this is too nice to be true. The bad guy this time is Opera. She refuses to play the game and anchoring simply doesn't work in overflow: hidden elements.

After some experimenting, I came up with a working solution: Opera jumps to the desired point, if the overflow is auto. Great, I only need to hide those scrollbars, and I'll have a cross browser, JavaScript free navigation system, that just rocks.

The trick is, that you have to put the overflow:auto element in an overflow: hidden wrapper, that crops the scrollbars.
