This warning will appear if the page list is empty or not an array.

[WebBird]

following notices appeared ( before and after your codechange), level  E_ALL:

While I'm not responsible for this module I can state that this is because the include.php has the following include:

Code:

include_once(WB_PATH.'/framework/class.frontend.php');

I can take over the maintenance of this module if the author wishes. In this case, I will do all I can to correct all the other faults there may be.

For tomhung has retired from WebsiteBaker would be nice if you would do that.

It's not a problem, it's the way it works. It uses a code section. Read the info!

I dont see this module in my combo box where I can add sections...

WB distinguishes three types of modules:
     * Page type modules
     * Administration tools (admin module)
     * Additional functions (code snippets)

This is a "Code Snippet" Module - Therefore you will have no dashboard for it.

You may want to try this out. (See attachment below.)

Changes:

* Included the fix I posted yesterday, which brought up this thread to the top
* Prevent recursion (if the page the tabber is included in appears in the page list)
* Suppress the NOTICEs (Quick and dirty at the moment; I didn't find a clean way in this short time)
* Renamed function get_page_content() to tabber_get_page_con tent() to be more precise (avoid name clash)
* Renamed tabber.css to frontend.css
* Allows

Code:

tabber(array(1,2,3));

or

Code:

tabber('1,2,3');

to be used
* Corrected HTML to be valid XHTML

Hello Webbird.
Thanks for this refreshed version.

Could you please provide a little info (for noncoders) what this means:

* Allows

Code:

tabber(array(1,2,3));

or

Code:

tabber('1,2,3');

to be used

What can I do with the array stuff?
What is this good for?

More wishes:
- use alternative tab titles AND/OR use <br> within tab titles (useful if page titles are very long)

This can't be done 'cause the JavaScript removes all non-alphanumeric characters from the heading. I would have to rewrite the JS. (I don't like to. )

[WebBird]

What can I do with the array stuff?

It's just a (more precise) way to give a list of page numbers. It means "this function has one parameter, and it's an array". An array defines a list in PHP.

So the break can't be done. But what about alternative tab titles? Some pages have long descriptive titles, and for tabs you want short titles.

Why don't use the menu-title instead of the page-title?

They're shorter generally

It can't be done by _me_.

So have a look at new version 0.3.

Code:

tabber_use_menu_title();
tabber('3,5');

...uses the menu title for the tabs.

Code:

tabber('3,5');

...behaves like v0.1 and v0.2.

Should be enough for today.

Edit: Removed attachment. See below for current version.

Cool.
Thanks WebBird.

Nice work WebBird, thank you!

[WebBird]

Thank you.

There are two things I'd like to mention, you should know if you use this snippet. It is just a wrapper around a JavaScript provided by http://www.barelyfitz.com/projects/tabber/

1. It's all done by JavaScript. To see what this means, just view your Tabber enhanced page with JavaScript disabled in your browser. (The contents of all included pages are shown among one another.)

2. Keep in mind that all included pages are loaded at once. So, if you include a bunch of large pages with Tabber, the page loading time will exceed. So, use with care.

[WebBird]

I can enable the section feature, but what would you like to use as tab title?

You should be able to set custom titles for sections, I'm afraid...
Or be able to give sections titles themselves, but that's outside the module.

[WebBird]

Hm. Could you live with it using like this?

Code:

tabber_sections(
    array(
        1 => "Title for Section 1",
        2 => "Title for Section 2"
    )
);

[Argos]

Code:

tabber_sections(
    array(
        1 => "Title for Section 1",
        2 => "Title for Section 2"
    )
);

Yes, I could 
Great!
Could you do the same with page titles? To overrule the default ones?

[Stefek]

Yes. I could live with this.

It seems to be easy.

You have to set the numbers of the sections anyway - so why don't write the titles behind them.

Good Idea.


BTW.
If all this is working with "Tabber", is there any posibility to make it work with "Coda Slider"?
I mean after some adjustements to the snippet?
