[HTMLi-user] Doing an action when a tab is selected.

[Jaap de W. <ja...@de...>]

Hello,

I want to do an action when a tab is selected.
(Actually I want to fill a tab with values from a httpRequest(), but 
thats not the issue).
But I can find no way to find the selected tab.
According to the documentation I should use the |*getPosition 
<cid:par...@de...>*() of the tabpane, but that 
returns 'undefined'.
I tried to find the selected tab in the onmouseup ||of the tabpane 
||(and in the onmousedown), using the code below, but that always gave 
me as a result the page that was selected before (So when I first select 
tab1, and then tab2, tab1 is updated when tab2 is selected.
I also tried the onselect of the tab, but that does not work before you 
actually click in the tab area.

Has anyone suggestions?

------ code used to find tab item from tabpane -------
function selectMenu(me)
{
  var children = me.getChildNodes();
  for (var i=0; i &lt; children.getLength(); i++)
  {
    if (children.item(i).outerNode.className == 
'com_htmli_ui_Tab__selected')
    {
      var id = children.item(i).outerNode.id;
      debug(id);
      // only interested in id starting with Page
      if (id.substr(0,4) == 'Page')
      {
||        // find the corresponding node
||        var node = document.getElementById('Div'+ id);
        if (node.innerHTML == '')
        {
             // do something
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
