Q:
Is there a way to programmatically specify which tab is selected in the drop down menu using javascript?
What I mean is, I want to set the selected tab programmatically (Not clicking the tab).
A:
Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return the
selected tab.
If your site is written on PHP you can set "bselectedItem" and "var
bselectedSmItem" parameters based on your link before
you call your data file.
For example, move "bselectedItem" and "var bselectedSmItem" parameters
from your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, for
example:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
