TABLATURE NOTICE

Please use discretion when adding guitar or bass tablature, Users adding tabs should know how to play the given instrument so that they are able to test out the tablature before adding to the Archive. Simply put, if you do not know what note corresponds to the open string, or common tunings then you probably shouldn't post tablature.

Current poor markup

Check that section indexes are pinned to the right-side, at least in Google Chrome. I can't understand why you use complicated HTML/CSS markup float-property-based technique without complete understanding of its purpose. Remove redundant <br> tags, use simple HTML/Wiki tables to show guitar/bass/etc tabs in tabular manner, etc. I think that the following table manner is much better (reducing ammount of exact title occurances, simplifying the markup, etc):

Sample

File:PortraitOfAnAmericanFamily.png	Cake and Sodomy	guitar	bass
	Lunchbox	guitar	bass
	Organ Grinder	guitar	bass
	Cyclops	guitar	bass
	Dope Hat	guitar	bass
	Get Your Gunn	guitar	bass
	Wrapped in Plastic	guitar	bass
	Dogma	guitar	bass
	Sweet Tooth	guitar	bass
	Snake Eyes and Sissies	guitar	bass
	My Monkey	guitar	bass
	Misery Machine	guitar	bass

And the last note: the <br> tag is self-closed so the correct syntax is <br/>. (scarshock 08:12, 4 May 2010 (UTC))
