Manually activate tabs jquery ui 1.10.3 -

i getting mad, searched through jquery ui doc , stackoverflow's questions (tons of questions) cannot figure out how manually activate tabs ( .tabs() ) in jquery 1.10+ .

i founded , tried solution :

$(mytabs).tabs("option", "active", index); 

but not seem work out. can me know how activate tab , e.g. when create new one?

i can't figure out how jquery ui has no longer select event , know, accomplished goal.

i'm creating new tabs function :

var addtab = function() {   var tabtemplate = "<li><a href='#tabs-1'>non titolato</a></li>";   var li = $.parsehtml(tabtemplate);     $(li).addclass('ui-corner-all');     $(".ui-tabs-nav").append(li);     $("#stepbuilder").tabs('refresh'); } 

i activate last 1 created.

use following activate last tab.

$("#stepbuilder").tabs({ active: -1 }); 

i've created an example on jsfiddle.net.

the api doc says activate option:

active

type: boolean or integer default: 0

which panel open.

multiple types supported:

boolean: setting active false collapse panels. requires collapsible option true.

integer: zero-based index of panel active (open). negative value selects panels going backward last panel.
