In order to use the TabSet-Tag on a JSP page, the corresponding tag library must be declared at the start of the page. Then, the Common-Controls can be used with the prefix <ctrl:tagname />. [In addition, the incorporation of the tag libraries must be included in the Deployment descriptor, the WEB-INF/web.xml file].

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/cc-controls.tld" prefix="ctrl" %>

<html:form action="/sample402/userprofilEdit" method="post">

    <ctrl:tabset
        id="uptabset"
        property="tabset"
        tabs="3"
        labellength="20"
        width="450"
        runat="client">

        <ctrl:tab
            id="tab1"
            title="User"
            content="Tab_Page1.jsp"
            tooltip="User Display"/>

        <ctrl:tab
            id="tab2"
            title="Settings"
            content="Tab_Page2.jsp"
            tooltip="User Settings"/>

        <ctrl:tab
            id="tab3"
            title="History"
            content="Tab_Page3.jsp"
            tooltip="History"/>
    </ctrl:tabset>

</html:form>

In our example, for the sake of clarity, we have included the individual tabs as independent JSP-pages. The details source code is available with the demo-version.

Alternatively, the HTML-code can also be specified directly within the tag-body of a tab:

    <ctrl:tab   id="tab3"   title="History" tooltip="History"/>
        <b>Hello World!</b>
    </ctrl:tab>
