/**************** ESSENTIAL STYLES ***************/
/* This first group of styles are most important for the function of
Superfish.
 * The more cosmetic styling rules are grouped together below under
the heading
 * ORIGINAL SKIN.
 *
 * Note that this CSS file will create the kind of menu demonstrated
on the main
 * page of the Superfish documentation, ie. top tier of nav is
horizontal, with
 * subsequent tiers vertical.

available. This way, the menu degrades to regular CSS dropdown when
JavaScript is unavailable */

Superfish, all browsers use this rule when JS is available. This is
because the JS needs to be able to control hide and reveal delays and
animations without the pure CSS rule intruding. Note the tag selector
ul.nav instead of just .nav - this gives it the most specificity of
all and makes it trump all other positioning rules, including
the .superfish overrides below */
