Problem with javascript/css tabs

Hey, I am trying to incorporate some tabs on to my webpage, without actually having a new page for each tab. But rather an 'anchor', so that I can easily swtich between the two or more tabs.

I've been trying to follow the tutorial at:
http://phrogz.net/JS/Tabtastic/index.html

but it doesnt seem to be working.

I've copied the markup code:

<ul class="tabset_tabs">
   <li><a href="#tab1" class="active">Tab 1</a></li>
   <li><a href="#tab2">Tab 2</a></li>
   <li><a href="#tab3">Tab 3</a></li>
</ul>

<div id="tab1" class="tabset_content">
   <h2 class="tabset_label">Tab 1</h2>
   Tab 1 Content
</div>

<div id="tab2" class="tabset_content">
   <h2 class="tabset_label">Tab 2</h2>
   Tab 2 Content
</div>

<div id="tab3" class="tabset_content">
   <h2 class="tabset_label">Tab 3</h2>
   Tab 3 Content
</div>

copied the header files:
<script type="text/javascript" src="addclasskillclass.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="attachevent.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="addcss.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tabtastic.js"></script>

and also copied the source files into my directory:tabtastic.css,tabtastic.js,AttachEvent.js, AddClassKillClass.js, AddCSS.js.

But I dont understand why it doesnt work.
Any help is much appreciated.
thanks

Do you have your page online for us to debug. It seems that you are using it correctly.

A thing that might be a problem is that your webserver is case-sensitive. This could mean that it can't locate "addcss.js" when it is stored as "AddCSS.js".

You would have to test whether or not this is the case.

Thanks for the input roonaan, but i'm currently running the system on my local machine using the php apache server as I do not want to interfere with the online website. I have tried changing the case, but it still doesn't work.

I think there might be a problem with the source js files.

Does anyone know of any other scripts I could use for content tabs?

Thanks
Probably going to get my ass kicked over this, but you could try http://www.roonaan.nl/lib/view/js.TabBox.js
