anything that happens in the browser (e.g. clicking) is client side. coldfusion is server side.
the only way to trigger a CF action (e.g. setting a session variable) after a client side event would be: 1) go back to the server (add a link to the tab) that sets the variable on the server and then reloads the page 2) add an onclick event handler to the tab and use AJAX to send a request to the server to set the session variable.
