Hi yaaaaa'll!

Sorry in advance if this was the wrong place to put this >.< I'm recently new to learning how to do tabs in codes, and I've figured out how to get them at the top and on the left side - is there a way to get the tabs to the right side or the bottom of the code?

Thanks loves
<3 Lia

Do you think we can be just like you?
Hi Lia! You can definitely put them on either left or below. For left tab make sure your

.NAMEtab {float: left}
so when you add the border, it will goes to the left side of your template. As for below, the same rule applies except you need to adjust the tabs on labels. This is the example of mine for a tab template i recently made. You can dissect them if you want!

i've been having some pretty dark thoughts.
Addy's definitely correct! Your syntax for your tabs should look a little something like so:

[PTab=[div][attr="class","CLASSNAME"]TAB NAME[/div]]

- making extra sure to put that closing "]" bracket on the end. I personally like to set divs within the PTab to position:absolute (plus a z-index over 1), since that offers a lot more freedom with where you can put the tab, alongside not having to worry about how the margins you put in affect everything else.

One thing to note is that, while tabs normally show up like this:

[PTabbedContent]
[PTab=Name]

meow

[/PTab]
[PTab=Another Tab]

woof

[/PTab]
[/PTabbedContent]

Editting margins of a div-within-the-PTab will only affect what the "text" would be, like this:

[PTabbedContent]
[PTab=
[attr="class","testingtabnames"]Name
]

meow

[/PTab]
[PTab=Another Tab]

woof

[/PTab]
[/PTabbedContent={position:relative;z-index:1;}]
[newclass=.testingtabnames]position:absolute;background-color:#f5de6e;padding:10px;margin:15px;z-index:10;[/newclass]

This means you'll have to edit the PTab's built-in classes so that they're transparent, have no padding, don't have a height, et cetera in order to avoid some blockiness with your design.
