I have followed the tutorial and linking to a non default panel works great on IE6. I have id number in tab=1&panel=1 in the url.
When I test it on chrome, the link takes me to the id 1 and not the id that I have it in the url.
Please help me with the issue.

Thanks

Sorry, I'm very tied up at the moment. Have you tried asking for help in the Spry forum?

First of all – many thanks for your Spry tutorials, David, they are very helpful. Here is my problem – I am trying to open a tab (index_hours_test.htm) from a different page (index_hours_test_linkstohours.htm). Looks like first two links work (opening tabs in panel 3) but last two links don’t (opening tabs in panel 2). And I am not sure if the first two links work just by some coincidence. Any idea where did I make a mistake or what should I do to fix it? Your advise will be greatly appreciated. Here are the pages:

Glad to be of service. Shooting yourself can be so messy.

No, it hasn’t changed. If you read my original blog post, it says that linking to a tab within the same page is covered in my book. I added the online tutorial to show how to link to panels and tabs in other pages because so many people had asked how to do it.

You can learn how to link to a tabbed panel on the same page by studying the underlying code in the Spry documentation at http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/tabbedpanels/tabbed_panel_sample.htm.

I have been searching for the answer to this all day, and I keep getting directed to your “Linking to a Specific Spry panel” tutorial… but it looks like this has been changed to explain how to link from a different page, instead of linking from one tab to another in the same widget on the same page. Is the original tutorial online anywhere?

The best place to get help with Spry problems is in the Adobe Spry forum. Upload to a website the page you're having problems with, and include the URL in your request for help.
