Question

I’d like to run a bit of code when a user clicks on one of the tabs in a jQuery Tools tabs implementation. Is this possible? I’m dubious, based on an initial look at the source, but ideas are welcome. I’m thinking about doing a slightly different version of the slide effect, one that makes my call in addition to the basic slide stuff. Thoughts?

Answer 1

Of course you can do it,

$(function() {
    // setup ul.tabs to work as tabs for each div directly under div.panes
    $(".tabs li a").click(function() {
       alert($(this).html() + " clicked");
        return false;
    });
    $("ul.tabs").tabs("div.panes > div");
});
