That's a great idea, and a nice addon to the module. Thanks.

Could you add more details on how you see this working?

hi thanks for replying :D

You would need 2 CCK fields: one for the title and one for the content

when u add a CCK field, it is retrieved with field_fieldname, which can have an array listing all the tab titles

if you can connect subsequent fields with field_fieldname_content_array[#] to each field_fieldname_array[#] then u can set up the AJAX

i hope that s not too confusing and doable :D

How about having just one field, with title and content widget (I hope it can be done in CCK). If you set the field to have multiple values, then each additional value is another tab, with title and content.

It all sounds fascinating. Can you think of use cases that will justify the development?
One thing I can think of is that it will let the non-programmer create tabs with a simple and well known UI (CCK's).

i would use it instead of the book content type, at least make the story contenttype more flexible

It would take more than this simple design to replace the book module IMO

CCK has a fieldgroup option setting u can use as a tab title.....which leaves the CCK field to contain the content to be AJAX'ed ;)
