Is the Tabs control broken in IE-9?

The AW.UI.Tabs control appears to be broken on Internet Explorer version 9. Yesterday we discovered this while doing a demo for potential customers with web pages already in live operation for other customers running IE-8.

I built a stripped down demo page here: https://orthopedicnetworknews.com/TabTest.html.

This is a serious problem for us. I don't know where to begin to fix this. HELP!!!

Oops -- clicking the link above picks up the trailing period. It's "TabTest.html" not "TabTest.html." Sorry

I stripped it down even more. Nothing extra. see it live at https://orthopedicnetworknews.com/TabTest2.html

Here is the code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

<html>

<head>

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

    <link href="ActiveWidgets/runtime/styles/xp/aw.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" ></link>

    <script src="ActiveWidgets/runtime/lib/aw.js"></script>

</head>

<body style="padding:30px;">

<script language=JavaScript>

    var tabs = new AW.UI.Tabs;

    tabs.setItemText(["Tab 1","Tab 2","Tab 3","Tab 4"]);

    tabs.setItemCount(4);

    tabs.setSelectedItems([0]);

    document.write( tabs.toString() );

</script>

</body></html>

Yes, this is a bug in AW 2.6.0 and earlier versions. Should be fixed with -

.aw-ms9 .aw-ui-tabs .aw-item-box {

        width: auto;

    }
