Simple TabHelper using JQuery UI

By Paul Earley
I needed a simple tab component on some of my pages and did not want to bog down load time on every page of my CakePHP application. I put together this simple TabHelper. It uses JQuery UI and is based upon the tabs described here: http://stilbuero.de/jquery/tabs_3/

Limitations:

  • This version does not set javascript paramaters for the UI tabs. I would be grateful if a javascript guru would make this improvement.

PHPSpeedy helper

So I decided to write my own. You download all of the Farbtastic files and put the folder into your webroot's js folder, include the helper in your model, and off you go!
