A sample that show how you can add tab transition animations to your existing Tab Panel Controls. Included an idle state listener to bring all the tabs back to their normal state after a desired amount of time without mouse movement on the window. Now that CSS is widely supported, we can crank up the quality and appearance of the tabs on our sites. Using CSS to build a tabbed display. One where the user can click on individual tabs to view different content within the same space.
A popular form of navigation is tabbed navigation-a group of links that give the impression of being protrusions attached to different areas of unseen content. DOMtab is a JavaScript that turns a list of links connected to content sections into a tab interface. The script removes any "back to top" links in the section and automatically hides all but the first one when the page is loaded. These sliding doors based blue tinted tabs "jump up" when selected, such as when the mouse rolls over each one.
This is accomplished using a combination of relative positioning and padding on each tab. As with HTML errors, this can cause bigger problems than just preventing Magic Tabs from doing its stuff and can prevent other addons from working, interfere with the dashboard bar at the top of the page and even prevent a page from being edited.
Your browser developer console will always log JavaScript errors. On later current ConcreteCMS versions, the way blocks are wrapped on full width page types can interfere with the way Magic Tabs are rendered for Vertical templates and nested accordions. To allow this rendering problem to be corrected, Magic Tabs provides some global settings that can be adjusted to alter the way the grid box model is transformed when Magic Tabs are rendered.
JavaScript that creates complex display elements often takes information from the visibility or dimensions of their containing DOM element. A consequence is that if they are first rendered inside a DOM element that is hidden they get the wrong information and have glitches in their display.
A typical example is Google Maps , where a map will not render if its canvas area is hidden, such as on a tab that is initially closed. A similar problem can be encountered with any script based block that takes its dimensions from its visible container, including some galleries and sliders.
The following solution delays the rendering of the block until it is visible. Developers can use this to unilaterally improve the rendering of a problematic map or other block that is heavy on JavaScript.
The solution has been implemented in the core Google Maps block and some marketplace blocks. However, not all affected third party blocks implement this, so you may need to create a block template or remind the third party block developer that they need to update their block.
In this example, initialiseWhatever is the method that starts the JavaScript or JQuery plugin before this modification, such as initialising Google Maps. You can see this in action in the view.
If the containing DOM is visible ' id' , it is run straight away. There is no appreciable overhead or change to the way the plugin works. If not, a polling event is started to run every ms a reasonable value that many users won't even notice , and the JavaScript or jQuery started when its container becomes visible. An important part to never forget is to clear the timer when the plugin is started: window.
You can put almost any block inside a tab, including custom coded blocks and those generated with designer content and block designer.
The only blocks you need to be careful about are those with complex JavaScript involved in the rendering that does not render correctly if hidden when the JavaScript executes for example, some slider and map scripts need to have a size to render into - see above notes for Google Maps. If complex JavaScript is a concern, you can create a test page for any block,.
If a block's JavaScript renders correctly after such a test, it will also render correctly in Magic Tabs. If it does not render correctly, there are ways round this for problem JavaScript by delaying the rendering until the block becomes visible - as detailed above for Google Maps. If a theme or addon provides smooth scrolling, they typically initialise a jQuery plugin to work with all anchor links on a page, or at least all anchor links in the Main area of a page.
For example, a smooth scroller called scrollSmoothly could be initialised with:. The trouble is, such a zealous approach to smooth scrolling will catch other uses of anchor links that would be better left alone, such as uses by Magic Tabs. The solution is to restrict the links the smooth scroller is applied to:. Now the smooth scrolling jQuery plugin has been configured to ignore any Magic Tabs anchors, and Magic Tabs is able to function.
The addon Ajax for Express Forms facilitates ajax submission of any express form, including a form split into tabs with magic tabs. From v7. You do not need to add any snippet of JavaScript to integrate. Prior to v7. More information on setForm can be found in the Ajax for Express Forms documentation. The above is not the most efficient way to do this, the event handler waits for events to propagate up to the document and should multiple sets of tabs be on a page could be triggered several times.
Any set of Magic Tabs will follow the template set for the first Magic Tabs block in the set. Templates set for subsequent Magic Tabs blocks in a set of tabs will be loaded, but ignored. In general, page loading will be faster if you either leave subsequent tabs with the default template because it is small , or assign all tabs the same template as the first. You can also design custom templates using the examples shown in the supplied templates as a starting point.
The templates Self Contained Starter and other 'Starter' templates are usually good starting points because they are completely self contained with no theme dependencies. See Developing Tab Templates for more details. There is much more you can do with Magic Tabs. Have a look through these pages for examples, ideas and detailed documentation.

This solution is not working out for me I must be missing something, as I cannot get this working either. Any suggestions? Did you enable plugins in the VM config? That was it! I enabled the plugins, but not "plugins" in the VM config. Now I have to figure out the flypage mod I have the tabs working but have a question.
I would like the actual ask a question form within one of the tabs. Anyone know how to do this? Also, I have added the more images into the tabs but the size of the images appear to take the size of the set thumbnail size in the config.
How would this be altered?
