Open DCR with a specific tab pre-selected

Hi all,

I have a DCT that uses 3 tabs, and I was wondering if any of you know if there is a way to have it open to either the 2nd or 3rd tab? I know this can be done with pagination, but there don't seem to be any functions (that I can find) that I can use to switch tabs via FormAPI.

If anyone knows how to do this, and could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!

I'd also like to read what I can about tabs, but I'm not sure where to look in my documentation. Does anyone know off-hand which guide documents them? (I thought it would be the FormsPublisher or FormAPI guides, but I couldn't find it there).

[TS 6.7.1 SP1 on Solaris]

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Matt

Try to set focus on any item on 2nd or 3rd tab (using FormAPI).

You can try out what Kshitiz is suggesting. You need to give tabs name in the formAPI to set focus on init.
Something like

IWDatacapture.setFocus("Tab2/container/item1");

Also, look into templating developer guide.
