Welcome to the project pd.

As far as docs go, the latest version of the docs can be found at: 
http://netwindows.org/docs/manual.html

Most widgets have default values for required attributes. There's really 
not much that is outright 'required' for you to specify in order to get 
things to do _somthing_ :)

I'm not sure which version of netWindows you're using as you didn't 
mention it in your email. The docs represent what is residing in CVS head.

If you are using the the tabbed-pane widget from CVS head, I have really 
been meaning to revisit it but have been completely unable to find the 
time. I'm just about to get past the our anual user group meeting in 
which case I should have more time for nw hacking.

The new one is driven heavily by CSS and <div> blocks. I have a couple 
of outstanding bugzilla entries awaiting me on sf.net that might be 
affecting you if you're using the built in themeing and the tabbed pane 
from cvs head.

If you're using the one from the 0.3 release though I'll have to let 
Alex help you as I never really understood the internals of the old 
tabbed pane widget.

Were you just playing around with the example in the widget test pages? 
If so, what exactly did you do to cause things to break?

Cheers,
Michael
