jQuery UI TABS - Update URL Hash

[crobinson42]

This is extremely frustrating! I've tried all browsers and none of them work.

the below code does nothing.

$(function() {
    	 $("#tabs").tabs();
        $("#tabs").bind('tabsshow',function(event, ui) {
            window.location = ui.tab;
        });
  });

Neither does this!

$("#tabs").tabs({
     show: function(event, ui) {
            window.location = ui.tab;
        }
});

Any suggestions or input is appreciated.

It's a bug in the UI, here's the solution:

$('#tabs ul li a').click(function () {location.hash = $(this).attr('href');});

I'm not real familiar with that script. But I imagine the results depend upon one's intent and how the tabs are setup. As long as your solution works for you, that's fine. But it might not actually be a bug. Could be though.
