In the default configuration, the first tab is always the initial tab to be shown. Sometimes it is desirable to have another tab show instead. There are a couple different ways to accomplish this.
Selecting a tab using a url
To select a tab using a url you will need to add a querystring parameter to your url in a specific format. You can select the tab in one of three ways.
By Tab Number - SelectByNum
Add the following querystring parameter to your url, Module{ModuleId}_SelectByNum={TabNumber} where {ModuleId} is the ModuleId of the Aggregator module and {TabNumber} is the tab number you wish to select.
Example
The original page url is http://localhost/Test/tabid/54/Default.aspx
The module id of the Aggregator module is 370 and you wish to select tab number 3.
The url to select this is, http://localhost/Test/tabid/54/Default.aspx?Module370_SelectByNum=3
By Tab Title - SelectByTitle
Add the following querystring parameter to your url, Module{ModuleId}_SelectByTitle={TabTitle} where {ModuleId} is the ModuleId of the Aggregator module and {TabTitle} is the title of the tab you wish to select.
Example
The original page url is http://localhost/Test/tabid/54/Default.aspx
The module id of the Aggregator module is 370 and you wish to select the tab with a title of 'Page 5'
The url to select this is, http://localhost/Test/tabid/54/Default.aspx?Module370_SelectByTitle=Page 5
Selecting a tab using Javascript
To select a tab using javascript, you simply have to call the proper javascript function for the specific Aggregator module and tab. The syntax for the function is Agg
'ModuleId'_SelectTab(
tabnumber,
ModuleId);
Example
The module id of the Aggregator module is 370 and you wish to select tab 3
<a onclick="javascript:Agg370_SelectTab(3,370);" href="javascript:void(0)">Link To Tab 3</a><br />
