Okay.  I will do that later on tonight.  I have put up a sample of the 
new style output at:
   http://www.daa.com.au/~james/files/libglade-docs/

This is a straight port of the stylesheets I did for my Python docs. 
The uneven border problem that some people reported has been fixed (it 
was due to me specifying the border width in points -- mozilla would 
choose 1 pixel for some sides and 2 pixels for others on some people's 
screens ...)

There are a few other devhelp related changes I would like to make 
(Hallski has been changing how devhelp books are structured slightly), 
but that can easily wait til after the release.

James.
