Wolfbane Mediawiki skin (modified)

Wolfbane skin has a very nice style in my opinion. Unfortunately, this skin seems no more mantained by original author (Stinkfly), so I made a derivated version.

Main key features

New Wolfbane has many modifications respect original one. Here most important changes:

• successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional
• improved login procedures: works also in not public wikis, now
• many bugs corrected, in particular respect the w3c compatibility

• layout page is now fixed width (1080px max)
• fixed the problem of hide/show index in IE
