The grader table has been made entirely standalone from core or
theme styling. The floating divs have to share the exact same
rules, and so it was a lot easier and more maintainable to just
style them both using the same selectors, entirely ignoring the
table default styles.
And because the selectors are unique for both the floating elements
and the table cells, a themer can easily re-use them to style both,
without having to dig around to find all the selectors to overwrite.
Working on this highlighted some issues with the positioning. Those
have been fixed within the same patch. And even though it is still
not 100% correct on IE, the result is pretty decent.
This issue is a part of the MDL-46658 Task.
This issue is a part of the MDL-25544 Epic.
QUICK INSTALL
=============
For the impatient, here is a basic outline of the
installation process, which normally takes me only
a few minutes:
1) Move the Moodle files into your web directory.
2) Create a single database for Moodle to store all
its tables in (or choose an existing database).
3) Visit your Moodle site with a browser, you should
be taken to the install.php script, which will lead
you through creating a config.php file and then
setting up Moodle, creating an admin account etc.
4) Set up a cron task to call the file admin/cron.php
every five minutes or so.

Good luck and have fun!
