DD Tab Menu II -- Need to set tab content based on page displayed

[doug.lynn]

1) Script Title: DD Tab Menu II

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...ddtabmenu2.htm

3) Describe problem: The script hardcodes the initial tab content display. I would like to initialize (onload) the tab content based on which page is currently being displayed instead of always showing the same initial tab content.

I have tabs SC1 thru SC6 each with 2 to 5 tab content links. While SC1 tab content is be displayed after an initial user login, when they click ABC link on the SC3 tab content, I want the SC3 tab to be highlighted and the SC3 tab content to be displayed not the SC1 tab and SC1 tab content.

Thanks for your help.

In short, this basically needs to be done on the server side. The script does let you specify which tab should be initially selected when the page loads, using the line:

var initialtab=[1, "sc1"]

It's up to you then to change the above setting depending on which page is loaded. If you can't do that, you may want to look at Mouseover Tabs Menu, which lets you select a particular tab by using the URL parameter (see bottom of script page).
