Don't spiders look in the source and not what is actually visible in the browser?

THANKS BOB, INSTALL rite now, anyway there is no problem with SEO right?

Both versions are fully search engine unobtrusive, so Spiders have NO problem using either one. This has been tested and documented by Dynamic Drive (the creator of the .js files). IF Spiders hit the site with Java script disabled, they will have access to a very simple basic HTML LIST which has URLs that it can access and get to the information it needs while spidering a site with TABs installed.. Simple as that.

The AJAX Beta release is "As is" .. this is for those that want to "test" it out, play with it, use it etc.. no further development will be done on either version as we are working on version 2.0

If you are worried about people that have JS disabled, then when you install this (or anything else that uses JS), install it on a child style and have the parent style NON Tabbed. Heck, some people don't like the tabs, this way they can choose ;)

hello bob, tryin to install,but fail. the tabs showed perfectly, but when click one or another tab it open nothing, only the loading.gif then no forum come out.

in step 3 :

STEP 3 - Create a NEW Template: FORUMHOMETAB

in step 4 :Insert this line at the very begining of the template.
------------------------------------------------------
<if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == 'tabforumhome' AND in_array($forum['forumid'], $GLOBALS[tabcats])) OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay'">

is it tabforumhome or forumhometab? or both correctly?

thanks

FIXED! INSTALLED!! GOOD!!!!!!!! thanks bob

THe THIS SCRIPT is for the php file which is named tabforumhome.php I purposely named the template just the opposite so that there would be no confusion lol

you have not applied the template changes to those two templates.... read the install doc again, it shows you what template changes need to be made.. its the simplest template edit possible as you insert one line of code at the very beginning of the template and one tag at the very end..

Hi.. i think i did everything correctly but the tabs are not showing

you can see how it looks here http://www.maddengurus.com/forums/?styleid=1

or just go to the bottom and change the template to Default Style

what did i do wrong?

when i go to http://www.maddengurus.com/forums/tabforumhome.php

it shows Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /includes/functions_forumlist.php(350) : eval()'d code on line 1

is something wrong with tabforumhome.php in the beta version?

Hi bob, thank you for this mod. It works but i found some problems...

I had to put /forum/ in the path to ajaxtabs.css and ajaxtabs.js
The script now is working but i don't see loading.gif

In Internet Explorer 6 i see this picture in the attachment:

scamorz, any idea why mine looks the way it does? i checked the template edits over and over and i uploaded everything to the right place.
