The next planned release is: ?
These features are being considered by the developers of the extension for inclusion. This does not mean they cannot be worked on by anyone, feel free to submit a patch on the talk page if you develop the feature.
The <headertabs/> and {{#switchtablink: parser function names could be i18n. We should always support these standard names however additional localized names would be ideal.
If you would like to see a new feature added to Header Tabs, or have developed your own feature not listed above, please use the start discussion link here. If you have a patch file, please link to it directly. This is for feature requests only, support requests should still go to the talk page.
I believe it would be utterly cool to have subheader tabs, too. They could be generated by inserting a <subheadertabs /> tag which picks up on the second header, e.g.
= Header 1 = == Subheader 1 == == Subheader 2 == <subheadertabs /> = Header 2 = = Header 3 = <headertabs />
Thus two second level headers would be rendered below "Header 1". Cheers
We would like to see a functionality where one can define a default view tab per <headertabs /> definition (and not using LocalSettings). When using <headertabs / default="foo"> instead of going to the first tab the default="foo" would define a default tab that is viewed first. For example using HT in SForms where the general textarea needs to come last, means that the user always have to go through other tabs before he/she can start writing and having a possibility to declare <headertabs / default="foo"> would save some time for the user.
I may have reinvented the wheel and the code is not well tested, but the patches below are good enough for me and might be for others as well:
diff HeaderTabs-HEAD-7bfd0ae/HeaderTabs_body.jq.php HeaderTabs/HeaderTabs_body.jq.php
diff HeaderTabs-HEAD-7bfd0ae/skins-jquery/ext.headertabs.core.js HeaderTabs/skins-jqueryext.headertabs.core.js
Now you can use <headertabs default="Tab-name"/> so the page loads with that tab selected by default instead of the first tab mentioned on the page.
