Question / Issue
How do I create tabs in my custom forms?

Answer / Solution

The IWB product now supports the ability to add Tabs into custom forms.  There are a few little things to know when building a tabbed form:

  1. The form must begin with a tab if tabs are used.
  2. For tabs to be displayed more than one tab must be included in the form.
  3. The form cannot end with a tab.
  4. The tabs will prevent tabbing to the next tab until all fields on that tab are properly validated.
  5. The Previous, Next and Submit buttons are added automatically.

To add a tab to your custom form:

  1. Login to the Insurance Website Builder Administration Console 
  2. Click the Modify Forms Configuration link
  3. Click the Launch Form Builder button or Edit Your Existing Custom Form.
  4. Click the Fields tab.
  5. Select Tab in the Field Type drop down.
  6. You can add tabs by clicking the Add Custom Form Field button and choosing the field type of Tab.
  7. Drag and Drop your tabs to the Selected Fields text box.  Remember to apply the rules above.
  8. Click the Save Form button when finsihed.  You can also click the Cancel button to abandon your changes.
