Adaptive Horizontal Tab Menu In jQuery

An adaptive, responsive, mobile-compatible, horizontal tab menu written in jQuery, HTML, CSS/CSS3.

On small screen devices, the menu automatically collapses the overflowing menu items into a dropdown list if there is not enough space.

How to use it:

1. Copy and include the JavaScript file jquery.horizontalmenu.js, and the stylesheet jquery.horizontalmenu.css in your project.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="src/jquery.horizontalmenu.css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.min.js" 
        integrity="sha384-q8i/X+965DzO0rT7abK41JStQIAqVgRVzpbzo5smXKp4YfRvH+8abtTE1Pi6jizo" 
        crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="src/jquery.horizontalmenu.js"></script>

2. Create tabs & tab content for the tab menu.

<div class="ah-tab-wrapper">
  <div class="ah-tab">
    <a class="ah-tab-item" data-ah-tab-active="true" href="">Personal data</a>
    <a class="ah-tab-item" href="">Contacts</a>
    <a class="ah-tab-item" href="">Tab item with long name</a>
    <a class="ah-tab-item" href="">Password change</a>
    <a class="ah-tab-item" href="">Tab item</a>
  </div>
</div>
<div class="ah-tab-content-wrapper">
  <div class="ah-tab-content" data-ah-tab-active="true">
    <h2>Personal data</h2>
  </div>
  <div class="ah-tab-content">
    <h2>Contacts</h2>
  </div>
  <div class="ah-tab-content">
    <h2>Tab item with a long name</h2>
  </div>
  <div class="ah-tab-content">
    <h2>Password change</h2>
  </div>
  <div class="ah-tab-content">
    <h2>Tab item</h2>
  </div>
</div>

3. The JavaScript to activate the adaptive horizontal tab menu.

$(function () {
  $('.ah-tab-wrapper').horizontalmenu({
    itemClick : function(item) {
      $('.ah-tab-content-wrapper .ah-tab-content').removeAttr('data-ah-tab-active');
      $('.ah-tab-content-wrapper .ah-tab-content:eq(' + $(item).index() + ')').attr('data-ah-tab-active', 'true');
      return false; //if this finction return true then will be executed http request
    }
  });
});
