Is there a way for a javascript function to sense which of a set of tabs (created by HTML Composer, 7.7.03) is currently selected?

I can keep track once there is a click event; but is there a simple way to sense the initial status, on load, of each tabset?

jgross,

You can be doing something like -
  var tabs = document.getElementsByTagName("SPAN");
  alert(tabs.length);
  for(var i = 0; i < tabs.length; i++) {
    if(tabs[i].elementtype == "40") {
      alert(tabs[i].id+" - "+tabs[i].style.display);
    }
  }

The style.display will be giving you whether the tab content SPAN is being displayed or not and it then be the one selected.

but you will have to be making sure that the DOM has necessary content menaing the page is being fuly loaded.

Note that the first tab is not appearing to have the same sort of span?

If you want to verify this during page load, you can try assigning same html file as a DOM object and traverse down to validate the SPAN tag attribute 'selectedtab="true"'.
true says the tab is selected.

Ram,

The value for "selectedtab" is not being changed if other tab being selected. It is being used in startup only for showing default tab.
