tabview Have you ever visited http://kompas.com? One of the most famous newspaper website in Indonesia... At the left of the site, you can see a tab menu which is usually called “Tab View”. Why is it called Tab Menu? Because when the tab is clicked, it will move the menu content (wanna prove, just click the tab). However, it is a little different from the normal tab menu. The tab menu usually shows the content of the menu in turn or what we usually call “slide show”. Kang Rohman takes a conclusion that menu has 2 functions; as a “Tab View” and “Slide Show”.
Kang Rohman was interested in that tab menu, tried to apply it in blogger template and it works. To see the sample of Slide Show Tab View menu, please visit http://magazine-1.blogspot.com and pay attention to the left side of the top, there you can see the menu that is similar to the menu in kompas.com.
