Requirements
====================
Works in xoops 2.3.0, xoops 2.0.16, impresscms 1.0 and Xcl
Does not work in xoops 2.2.x due to diferent configuration of database, sorry.
If you have problems using xoops 2.3 alpha then add a folder named 'smarty_cache' with write permissions in
your_root/xoopsdata/caches/xoops_cache
Tested with php5 and php4.
Bugs
====================
Blocksadmin does not work correctly under iCms, please use your system blocksadmin.
Blocksadmin does not work correctly under xcl. (I donīt know if xcl provides a cloning block function).
Be carefull when selecting time based tabs/blocks. Dislpayed hour is not always correct. Have that in mind when selecting time.
Limitations
====================
You canīt use more than one block with scrolling tabs (delay>0) per page.
Upgrading from older versions
====================
No upgrade, please:
Unistall mytabs.
Remove all files.
Clean templates_c folder
Upload new files.
Install mytabs.
Tips
====================
You can create your own .css for tabs. Just upload it to css folder an it will be available for selection in your blocks!
------
To avoid tabs from scrolling set delay to 0 inside your block.
------
Clone My Tabs Block using 'blocks and permissions' in mytabs administation page. If you use iCms or xoops 2.3.0 alpha you can also clone it from System Admin > Blocks Admin.
------
You can create html custom blocks and make them interact with each tab.
Ex of a custom block:
My tip number1
My hided links
And then set 'Reveal ID' inside the tabs edit form
for tab1 : my div
for tab2 : mydiv2
You can expand/contract more than one div, just separate the divs ids with a comma
for tab 3 : my div, mydiv2
------
You can also add a link to a tab.
Just set 'Links to' with the complete URL
Ex:
http://www.anothersite.com/register.php ------
You can use Mytabs as a menu!
Set your block height to 0 and create tabs without blocks.
Using the 'Link To' option you can easily make your menu.
You do not need to enter all the complete link
ex:
index.php
modules/news
viewpmsg.php
You can use {user_id} in your link. It will retrieve the Id of the user seing the page
ex:
userinfo?uid={user_id}
You can also customize the name of the link for display private messages info
In the tab title just add
{pm_new}
{pm_readed}
{pm_total}
ex:
title = Inbox {pm_new}
Link to = viewpmsg.php
