This plugin uses the jQuery loadmask plugin by Sergiy Kovalchuk.

================================================

Simple boostrap plugin to allow tabs and accordions to fetch their data from a remote source

The script is only 2.5k compressed!

• Bootstrap 2.3 or higher

• Clone this repository or download the latest stable
• Copy the bootstrap-remote-tabs.js in your js directory.
• Include it:

• If you want a loading mask to appear when you load your remote content, also include the following files: js/jquery.loadmask.js (before the remote tabs plugin) ,css/jquery.loadmask.css. and img/loading.gif.

You can use the following properties to enable remote data tabs:

Check the demo for details on how to use this plugin.

Note: The properties are still named data-tab due to backwards compatibility

You can change the default settings of this plugin by providing the settings as a global variable.

There are two options currently:

• customLoadFn (callback): this is a custom loading function, defaults to the built-in loader
• loadFirstTab (boolean): whether to load the first tab on page load or not (defaults to false)

var bootstrapRemoteTabSettings = {
   customLoadFn: function(isLoading) {
      var loader = $('.custom-loader');
      
      if (isLoading) {
        loader.show();
      } else {
        loader.hide();
      }
   },
   loadFirstTab: true
}

This plugin hooks into the bootstrap tab/accordion 'show' event. In order to use a custom event callback, you can provide data-tab-callback to let the plugin execute your custom callback. If you want a callback to be fired after the show event, use the native shown event.
