Re: [Bodington-developers] Top frame styling improvement - commited to HEAD

Did you test it by increasing the font size and accessing a resource 
with a very long title?

This is a bit tricky because additional browser specific rules apply 
beyond the CSS handling. I tried to fix the font size since the size of 
the control itself is fixed but I found that Firefox ignores absolute 
font sizes and scales them. That means that if the font size is 
increased the button label becomes illegible. By making it smaller in 
the first place it remains legible for longer as the font sizes are 
notched up.

To allow more space for growing text below it.

Ditto - when the font is increased it grows downwards. (But not the 
icons - please adjust to taste)

Ditto - allows space for several lines of text if the font enlarges or 
if the title is very long. I fixed the aesthetics for CSS2.1 compliant 
browsers by setting the display mode to a table cell and the vertical 
alignment to middle. Sadly IE doesn't implement these rules so the only 
solution would have been to actually tag the title up as a table.

I've commented the CSS file to explain the properties.
