I can make this change myself, but dont know whether i have the latest version. does the URL quoted below contain the latest version? Regards Ashutosh This can be very useful... I will add that soon! -- Klaus ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

When you switch to it, however, a callback fires that Ajax-loads the contents of that tab, possibly skipping that if it's already been loaded. Taing it a step further, an on-leaving callback would let you auto-submit a form in a given tab as soon as you tab away from it. Instant-save tabbed forms for the cost of 2 callbacks. Sorry, I just put 2 and 2 together and got a very cool 10. :-) --Larry Garfield ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

That's a trade-off with any dynamic-content-loading system. But if you don't do that, then the tab system itself would still degrade nicely. --Larry Garfield ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Therefore I wouldn't go so far and implement Ajax calls on tab click. I cannot see the use here, to me it's like using Ajax for the sake of Ajax. The user would even have to wait for the content to be loaded (first click), and that is not what I call very usable. Nonetheless, with the callback mechanism it would be pretty easy to implement such a function and pass it as callback. But this should not be part of the plugin in my eyes. -- Klaus ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Regards Ashutosh I assume you would like to have the possibility to have different callbacks for each tab or alternatively one function for all or even both together? -- Klaus ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
