i just want to create a tab named Home in a tabbed layout that, when clicked, will load the home page

is there a way to make this work?

<a href="home.cfm"><cflayoutarea title="Home" name="goHome"></cflayoutarea></a>

thanks

    There is nothing immediately obvious in the docs.  There may be a way to access the underlying JS object used by the <cflayout> controls, but it might be easier to create a page for the source of that area and redirect to the home page using a window.location or equivalend JS command.

    thanks insuractive, adding a source param to a simple redirect page works fine, but only if you also specify the bindonload="false" param for cflayoutarea. otherwise, it will try to load the linked source immediately which in turn will kick you out of your page right after loading
