[Building Sakai] 6 tools in 2.9 where you can't tell which "tab" is currently selected--3 on track for 2.10 fix?

[Keli Sato Amann]

Well, that's even better news! Thanks! I'll push for the samigo fix...

Keli,
I think that at least some of this is a duplicate of:
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-23057

That fix is in trunk and I believe covers every tool mentioned except Samigo.

These tickets should probably be closed as duplicates of SAK-23057:
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-24402
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-23449
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-23448
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-24400
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-24403

I don't think we want a different fix in 2.9 than what is in trunk.

I have created JIRAs to track them. Although the header of that page indicates where you are, users would expect that selected tab would change in appearance to indicate that is where you are (it was black text, while the other tabs were blue text, prior to 2.9).

This gives the selected tab (which looks like a button) a dark grey appearance that makes it appear depressed, at least with the default skin.
