This happened after updating to 1.9.6+ from 1.9.5+, nothing else has changed in the theme files or anything else.

Hi Luke,
Your screenshot shows the tabs in the Questionnaire (3rd party) plugin. Are you also getting broken tabs in the other, standard, activities? If you are only getting this display problem in the Questionnaire activity, then please re-post to the relevant Questionnaire forum and I'll have a look.
It would really help if you said which theme you are actually using and to have access to your moodle site if it's available online.

Thanks for the reply.
I am using a custom theme which had no problems before, and yes it does appear on all tabs throughout the site not just the questionnaire (thats just what i noticed first) the moodle is at http://moodle.opgs.org.
Thansk for taking a look.
Hi Luke,
There's not much to look at without being able to login

Unfortuantely under school policy we can't allow guest access. But i believe that if its a css problem the css can still be grabbed even from the login page. Its annoying because its the onyl problem there is, otherwise we have a fully w3c compliant moodle
(and it just looks horrible)
Yes, you're right regarding the CSS. Should have thought of that...
Is your custom theme based on a standard parent theme? That would make troubleshooting a bit easier.
And which browser do you use?

PS:
Just for convenience sake I resized your screenshot so that it will upload here.

Hi Luke,
It is really quite hard to help you without any access to your online site itself or to your full theme files.
I have tried to "grab" the CSS rules you are using in your theme from the front page, and applied them to my test site, and the tabs work OK, both in MSIE and FF (see screenshot). The only way we could help further would be if you could zip all the files of your custom theme and post the zip file here (or send it to my personal email address, see my profile).
Joseph
Same result here, even in IE6! That would suggest that this is no CSS related problem. Have you customized any other theme files, e.g. header.html?
Frank
Frank
Not since the upgrade
It happens in any browser i use, ill see what i can do regarding the zip....
And im now guessing that css isn't the problem since it worked for you inyour moodle, but will try and get the zip up here
UPDATE : Sorry bout the download wait (free hosting package)
Luke,
it looks like you should set to your theme config.php
$THEME->standardmetainclude = true;
(It's now false and no IE specific css is read for tabs and forms from standard theme styles_ie6.css and styles_ie7.css)
Mauno's suggestions seems to solve the issue in IE6 (with the usual minor glitch):
Thanks, it now does this but don't worry bout that, it always did that on this certain computer 
You lot have been an amazing help. Thanks again
