Question

Is there a way to make the jquery-ui “tabs” control display small arrows when there are many tabs open, so that the user can flick through them (like in a Firefox window with many tabs open)? If not, are there any tab controls that implement this feature?

Answer 1

I think you could add a css rule that target open tabs and an image for example:

.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav .ui-tabs-selected{
    background-image: url(....);
}
