Trying out tabbed panels in my dialog for the first time. Is there a way to test for which tab is active at a given time?

If you labeled your tabs with a text property in the tab definition, this should work:

alert(dialog.tpanel1.selection.text)

I think tabbedPanel.selection gives you the active tab.

    Thanks for the tip. When I enter the line like this

         alert(dialog.tpanel1.selection);  I get the result [object panel].
    I tried adding a .name after selection but that came up undefined. Seems like it's accessing a panel but I'm not sure how to get at the name to identify it.
