Hello Listees,
Wanted to get some opinions on tabbed menus. I am considering
implementing them for a client website, but I am having trouble
finding one that works as desired on most of the popular browsers.
The one I've found so far is the tabbed menu from webfx. Its nice,
all CSS, easy to customize, but I'm having some issues in regards to
interfacing with it. For example, I have yet to figure out how to
formulate a link so that a particular tab is selected, and how to
select a tab to be opened by default.
I've come here in hopes that someone else has come up with this
problem, and can save me some time googling (please, I'm at a
location without broadband, and email alone is killing me).
What I'm looking for is a tabbed menu that's relatively browser
friendly. Minor display quirks I can deal with, but it completely
not displaying, bombing out, etc can't be acceptable. Also, it needs
to have some sort of API where I can dynamically control it. It
would be nice if when clicking on a tab, you can fire off an event
in addition to the appropriate "page" being visible (this is also a
problem with the tabbed menu from webfx).
A while back I remember a discussion about tabbed menus, but I
forget if it was mainly concerned with display issues, or more
around programming. My mainstay is PHP ... so I would prefer
something that works with PHP.
Thanks all,
