Spry Help

Question

Hi there,
I have created a spry tabbed panel that has an upload form
within one of the tabs, However when i submit the form i wish for
it to stay on the tab that is selected, at the moment it refreshes
the whole page and reverts back to the default tab.
All my code is in php, is it somthing that needs to be done
in java?
Any solutions would be great.

Nothing needs to be done in Java, because there is no Java
involved.
Spry is JavaScript, which is completely different from Java.
The
languages are totally unrelated.
To redisplay the same tab when the form is submitted, you
need to add a
query string to the URL in the action attribute of your form
to indicate
which tab you want to be displayed when the form is
submitted. You can
then use SpryURLUtils.js to extract the value from the query
string and
open the correct tab. Take a look at the following tutorial
on my site:
http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/spry_url_utils.php
It shows how to open a specific tab or panel from a link on
another
page, but you should be able to adapt it to work with a form.
