You can change the class names via options (undocumented): $('#foo').tabs({ navClass: 'my-ui-tabs-nav' selectedClass: 'my-ui-tabs-selected', disabledClass: 'my ui-tabs-disabled', panelClass: 'my-ui-tabs-panel', loadingClass: 'my-ui-tabs-loading' });
Although I prefer to style different tabs on one page via context: .ui-tabs-nav { /* shared */ } #one .ui-tabs-nav { /* additional styles for the first tab interface */ } #two .ui-tabs-nav { /* additional styles for second tab interface */ } Or if you apply the id directly to the ul element: #one.ui-tabs-nav { /* additional styles for the first tab interface */ } --Klaus On 25 Sep., 17:04, "Dan B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Folks, > > I'm interested in having multiple instances of tabs on a page/pages > throughout a site and on the same page without using an iFrame. > > The tabs function is cool.
