#4877 closed enhancement (fixed)

Enhance ui-tabs list "UL:first" selector to allow for alternative markup

Description

The ui-tabs plugin is hard coded to assume that the <ul> list is a child of the current element.

The code in question is in the _tabify method:

_tabify: function(init) {

this.list = this.element.children('ul:first'); ...

}

This limits the markup to have to match >UL:first. Use any other markup and the tabs plugin will fail to locate the <ul> list.

I changed the code to use find() instead of children() and added an option to the defaults as follows: (Note the use of ">" in the selector to ensure find() continues to work the way children() does currently by default)

_tabify: function(init) {

this.list = this.element.find(this.options.listSelector); ...

}

defaults: {

...

listSelector: '>ul:first'

}

Now, when we initialise the tabs plugin, we can specify listSelector: '>DIV>ul:first' to handle my non-standard markup.

Fixed in r3421. Tabs now uses the first descendant list it encounters. This isn't as flexible as your proposal, but doesn't require any additional options.
