jQuery UI选项卡选择选项卡而不触发选择事件

Question

I'm a complete newb to jquery so sorry in advance if im speaking jibberish.

What I want to do is programatically select a tab in javascript on pageload without triggering the selected event.

The selected event does a postback to the tabitems url, so when I select a tab it just loops postbacks over and over again.

Edit:

To clearify, after I click the tab that does a postback, I need to visually represent for the user that the tab is selected, without triggering yet another postback.

Answer 1

try using the select function like this

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#myTabs").tabs("select", 1)
});

This will select the tab at index 1 for the collection of tabs called #myTabs. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

I managed to get it working by initializing the selected: attribute instead of using tabs("select",i). I tried it at first as well but it didn't work because of some other circumstances.
