Second tab is active:

    $('#container').tabs(2);

Two alternative ways to specify the active tab will overrule this argument. First a li element (representing one single tab) belonging to the selected tab class, e.g. set the selected tab class (default: "tabs-selected", see option selectedClass) for one of the unordered li elements in the HTML source. In addition if a fragment identifier/hash in the URL of the page refers to the id of a tab container of a tab interface the corresponding tab will be activated and both the initial argument as well as an eventually declared class attribute will be overruled.

# Slide Effect

- One
- Two
- Three

Use a slide effect to switch tabs. You can optionally specify the speed for the animation with the option `fxSpeed: value`. The value is either a string of one of the predefined speeds in jQuery (`slow`, `normal`, `fast`) or an integer value specifying the duration for the animation in milliseconds. If omitted it defaults to `normal`.

    $('#container').tabs({ fxSlide: true });

# Fade Effect

- One
- Two
- Three

Use a fade effect to switch tabs. You can optionally specify the speed for the animation with the option `fxSpeed: value`. The value is either a string of one of the predefined speeds in jQuery (`slow`, `normal`, `fast`) or an integer value specifying the duration for the animation in milliseconds. If omitted it defaults to `normal`.

    $('#container').tabs({ fxFade: true, fxSpeed: 'fast' });

# Slide and Fade Effect Combined

- One
- Two

Use a combined slide and fade effect to switch tabs:

    $('#container').tabs({ fxSlide: true, fxFade: true, fxSpeed: 'fast' });

# Callbacks

- One
- Two
- Three

Define callback functions that are invoked at different points in time during the tab switch process. These functions are invoked with three arguments: the first one being the clicked tab (the `a` element), the second one being the `div` element that holds the content of the clicked tab and the third one being the `div` element belonging to the tab that gets hidden.
If the onClick callback returns false, the tab switch is canceled. This is especially useful if switching tabs requires form validation before for example.

    $('#container').tabs({
        click: function() {
            alert('click callback');
        },
        hide: function() {
            alert('hide callback');
        },
        show: function() {
            alert('show callback');
        }
    });

# Ajax tabs

- One
- Two
- Three

# Triggering, Enabling, Disabling, Adding and Removing Tabs

- One
- Two
- Three

    $('#container').tabsClick(3); // simulate click on 3rd tab
    $('#container').tabsEnable(3); // enable 3rd tab
    $('#container').tabsDisable(3); // disable 3rd tab
    $('#container').tabsAdd('#new-tab', 'New Tab', 4); // add new 4th tab
    $('#container').tabsRemove(4); // remove 4th tab

One or more tabs can also be disabled immediatly by simply setting the disabling class for the `li` element representing that particular tab or by using the `disabled` option.

    <li class="ui-tabs-disabled">…</li>

    $('#container').tabs({ disabled: [2, 3] });

# Start with all tabs unselected/allow toggle visibility

- One
- Two
- Three

    $('#container').tabs({ unselected: true }); // start with all tabs hidden
    $('#container').tabs({ unselect: true }); // selected tab closes on click

Setting `unselected` option to `true` automatically sets `unselect` as well.
