Description
Is there a way to automatically cycle through tabs similar to the autoscroll you implemented in Panels Carousel?

#1
The autoscroll is supported by te jCarousel jQuery plugin itself. The Tabs jQuery plugin does not (yet) support this. If you'd like to see this feature, you may want to contact the author from there: http://stilbuero.de/jquery/tabs_3/ (also note that we're using Tabs 2, while Tabs 3 has been released, which only works with jQuery 1.2).
This *could* be implemented on top of the jQuery plugin (thus simply as additional JavaScript in this module), but I'm not sure it's a much wanted feature.
#2
Is already available for download as an extension to the plugin right here: http://docs.jquery.com/UI/TabsExtensions. This forces us to use the latest version of the Tabs jQuery plugin though, which is not immediately possible. As soon as that happens, this feature will come "for free".
#3
Won't be implemented for the 5.x version.
