 * Hi
 * I need to preselect a particular tab based on the URL that links to the page 
   that contains the tabs.
 * For example, I have a menu page with 2 tabs – Lunch Menu and Evening Menu. If
   linking to the menu page from the lunches page I want the Lunch Menu tab selected
   and if linking from the evening meals page then the Evening Menu tab is selected.
 * Is there a way to achieve this?
 * Many thanks
    Mike

 * Hi,
 * I’m sorry this is not an option we have, as you may have seen you can select 
   a default tab on page load, but that applies to the tab block, not depending 
   of the URL.
 * Cheers,
