Q:
How do I highlight the current tab in a hover tab menu?
A:
This Tabs menu can save pressed item automatically within
1 page only. If you open another page, the menu can't remember pressed
item. You should do that manually using Javascript and menu parameters
(var bselectedItem and var var bselectedSmItem) or using any server-side script (php, asp, etc.)
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>
Try that.
