No worries - this is a community forum, and part of the reason I
posted was a hunt for criticism.
I'll be the first to say the modules in onTap are more powerful - I
looked into them when I started developing my tags as an alternative
to having to write my own.
They're just done with different goals in mind because they were
developed to meet different needs. Basically, I needed a tabset that
some non-developers who can understand basic HTML could use, and I
realized I could use the same stuff to make a few other things.
To all: I always think you should use the right tool for the job - if
onTap is right for you, please use it. I will if I need to :).
Thanks for the tip on createUuid() - I've read the technote, but tend
to forget and still use it. I'll probably change things over to a
random number.

Hey Joe -- sorry if it seems like I was trying to steal your
limelight, I wasn't... quick question - I was looking at the output
and it looks like you're using createuuid() to generate the id's for
the various widget elements. Is that correct? If so, you might want to
think about trying to use something else because CreateUUID() can
cause Windows system clocks to accelerate due to an underlying bug in
the JVM.

Fairly annoying -- I had to deal with the same issue at one point and
created a couple of alternative functions to deal with it.
Anyway, I thought you'd like to know.
