JQueryTabpane

Plugin Info

Homepage: http://foswiki.org/Extensions/JQueryPlugin
Author(s): Michael Daum
Version: 2.13

Summary

This implements an alternative tabpane widget. There is already one in jquery-ui, however as long as jquery-ui is still in flux, this alternative offers a safe substitute well integrated into Foswiki.

Individual tabs can be loaded on demand using a REST call. Installing Foswiki:Extensions/RenderPlugin is recommended for that.

Tabpanes can be nested. Tabs can be extended in height automatically. Heights can be auto-updated to follow windows resize events. Tabpanes can be established as part of reloaded content via ajax.

Note that this widget does not participate in jquery-ui themerolling. It does match JQueryButton in terms of look & feel.

Macros

TABPANE -- tabpane widget

This macro starts the tabpane, containing a series of TAB...ENDTABs and ends with ENDTABPANE. A complete tabpane normally looks like this: 

%TABPANE%
 %TAB{"tab 1"}%
   ...
 %ENDTAB%
 %TAB{"tab 2"}%
   ...
 %ENDTAB%
%ENDTABPANE%

Multiple tabpanes can be nested using the following scheme: 

%TABPANE%
 %TAB{"tab 1"}%
   %TABPANE%
     %TAB{"tab 1.1"}%
       ...
     %ENDTAB%
     %TAB{"tab1.2"}%
       ...
     %ENDTAB%
   %ENDTABPANE%
 %ENDTAB%
 %TAB{"tab 2"}%
   ...
 %ENDTAB%
%ENDTABPANE%

Parameters

Parameter Description Default
select number or id of tab to select 1
automaxexpand resizes the tabpane to the maximum height to fit into the window off
minheight when automaxexpand is enabled, this is the minimum size a tab is allowed to be resized 230
class extra class: use simple for a non-3D tabpane; use=plain= for a no-frame look&feel  
animate enables/disables animation of switching tabs off

JavaScript API

Each .jqTabPane DOM node has got an instance of the TabPane javascript class attached to it that implements its behaviour. This instance can be accessed via the HTML5 data attribute tabPane: 

var tb = $(".jqTabPane").data("tabPane");

The returned object tb can then be used directly to control the related .jqTabPane DOM. The most useful methods are listed below:

MethodDescription
getNextTab([selector]) get the next tab following the current one or the one specified by selector
hideTab([selector]) hide the current tab or the one specified by selector
showTab([selector]) show the current tab or the one specified by selector
switchTab(selectorOrObject) switch to the tab specified by a selector or a tab object

Examples

Foo 

%STARTSECTION{"bar"}%
Aenean urna. Morbi eros. Quisque mauris magna, rhoncus vitae, ullamcorper ac,
volutpat quis, nibh. 
%ENDSECTION{"bar"}%
