Example Description

In this example, we created a tab effect using a multi-state box and buttons. Each state of the multi-state box contains the content for a single tab. The tabs are buttons located above the multi-state box and allow site visitors to navigate between the states.

Example Code

Tab 1

.

Tab 2

.

Tab 3

.

This code solution can be complicated.

How We Built It


Page Elements


We added the following elements to our page:

  • Multi-state box with 4 states. Each state contains different content.

  • 4 buttons that act as tabs. When you click a button, the corresponding state opens.


Tip! If you want each tab to appear as if it’s part of the same element as its corresponding state, choose the same background color for the button and state, and remove the borders from both the button and state.

 

Code


Our code does the following:


  1. Assign hex colors to variables to use as background colors of the selected and unselected buttons.

  2. When a site visitor clicks a tab (button), change the multi-state box to the corresponding state.

  3. When the multi-state box changes states, set the selected tab button background as green and set the other button backgrounds as white.
