Create Togglable Vertical Tabs


Step 1) Add HTML:


Example



<div class="tab">
  <button class="tablinks" onclick="openCity(event,
'London')">London</button>
  <button class="tablinks" onclick="openCity(event,
'Paris')">Paris</button>
  <button class="tablinks" onclick="openCity(event,
'Tokyo')">Tokyo</button>
</div>

<div id="London" class="tabcontent">
  <h3>London</h3>
 
<p>London is the capital city of England.</p>
</div>

<div
id="Paris" class="tabcontent">
  <h3>Paris</h3>
  <p>Paris
is the capital of France.</p>
</div>

<div id="Tokyo" class="tabcontent">
 
<h3>Tokyo</h3>
  <p>Tokyo is the capital of Japan.</p>
</div>


Create buttons to open the specific
tab content. All <div> elements with class="tabcontent" are hidden by default
(with CSS & JS) - when the user clicks on a button - it will open the tab content
that "matches" this button.




Step 2) Add CSS:

Style the buttons and the tab content:



Example



/* Style the tab */
.tab {
    float: left;
   
border: 1px solid #ccc;
    background-color: #f1f1f1;
   
width: 30%;
    height: 300px;
}

/* Style the buttons that are used to open the tab content */
.tab button {
   
display: block;
    background-color: inherit;
   
color: black;
    padding: 22px 16px;
   
width: 100%;
    border: none;
   
outline: none;
    text-align: left;
   
cursor: pointer;
    transition: 0.3s;
}

/* Change
background color of buttons on hover */
.tab button:hover {
   
background-color: #ddd;
}

/* Create an active/current "tab button"
class */
.tab button.active {
    background-color:
#ccc;
}

/* Style the tab content */
.tabcontent {
   
float: left;
    padding: 0px 12px;
   
border: 1px solid #ccc;
    width: 70%;
   
border-left: none;
    height: 300px;
}







<!--
mid_content, all: [300,250][336,280][728,90][970,250][970,90][320,50][468,60]
-->





Step 3) Add JavaScript:


Example



function openCity(evt, cityName) {
    // Declare all
variables
    var i, tabcontent, tablinks;

   
// Get all elements with class="tabcontent" and hide them
    tabcontent
= document.getElementsByClassName("tabcontent");
    for (i = 0; i < tabcontent.length; i++) {
        tabcontent[i].style.display = "none";
    }

    // Get all elements with class="tablinks" and remove
the class "active"
   
tablinks = document.getElementsByClassName("tablinks");
    for (i = 0; i <
tablinks.length; i++) {
       
tablinks[i].className = tablinks[i].className.replace(" active", "");
    }

    // Show the current tab, and add an "active" class to
the link that opened the tab
   
document.getElementById(cityName).style.display = "block";
   
evt.currentTarget.className += " active";
}
