tabs

I have been trying to work something out for the past few days thats really starting to kill me! It should be so simple, but im stuck. I have a functioning body template (cck + contemplate) for one of my content types, which works great. I have coded in a set of tabs which show a field or group as a tab, this works great; however for one of my tabs I require a more css stylized layout with a multiplicity of fields. I've been banging my head trying to figure the best way to accomplish this.

I posted this as a support request but this group may be a better place for it.

I have just installed a fresh Drupal 5.6 and Panels 2 beta 2.

I have a custom node type called Destination. My goal is to add some content related to each Destination node as a separate tab in the main Destination node display.

Normally after viewing a node, I would see the two default tabs:
View | Edit
I just want to add another one, say called "Test Panel", so that when I am looking at a Destination node, I'll have 3 tabs:
View | Edit | Test Panel

Hello,

I have a view and the goal is to turn it into a tab that shows only for a specific node type. Here is what I do:

I have a page view called for e.g. x_pictures that is supposed to display all the pictures associated with a given node of type X. The URL I have given to it is node/$arg/pictures
In the "Menu" section of the page definition I have the following settings:

Provide Menu - checked
Provide Menu as Tab - checked
Make Default Menu Tab - NOT checked
Parent Menu Item Type - Already exists (don't create)

I posted a module today that will be of interest to anyone wanting to use tabs on their site without having to do custom coding.

It's called Panels Block, http://drupal.org/project/panelsblock. With it you can expose a set of panels as a block via a new option on the panels edit form. (Only the content added to the 'left' area is made available as a block.) There are two ways to display the content: default (sort of like a regular panel) and tabs. (The tabs.module, part of Javascript Tools, is required.)

I've used the tabs module from the JS tools module before and interested in doing this again with a slight addition. I'd like to have tabs on the front page change automatically, as seen here http://news.aol.com/ .

I'm not sure if js tools is using jquery for the tabs, or something else, but does anyone know of a jquery tabs plugin that automtically switches? I've seen it done for image galleries with jquery, but not tabs. Has anyone tried something like this?

We're about to use the $.tabs plug in from stilbuero on a site. I ll write a wrapper module for it - anybody up to the same task?

This is a cooking recepie on how to use $.tabs for blocks:
