BDP 2.5

08/08/2008 by toyicebear

Basic Design Pack 2.3

04/09/2008 by Gosub

Full package!

This version fixes the problem with fixt width of the css buttons that caused long labels on buttons to overflow. That was really ugly :(

I found a way to dynamically calculate the width from the label value. I also included a ling-hight value so the text lines up at the same hight as the regular submit buttons.
