I am working on a project that uses javascript to make tabs. It has 3 tabs.
Tab three has an id of tab3, what I need is a refresh button that will be on tab3 that will refresh the page. Problem I'm having is if you click on tab3 it will display tab3 data, but it does not change the url. So the refresh button isn't working.
I tried an onclick javascript that reloads the page using location.reload() which reloads the page but not to the tab3. So I put that on a link,
<a href="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>#tab3" onclick="reloadPage();" >Refresh</a>
This will link to the correct location, the URL then has #tab3 at the end, then the Javascript runs and it reloads back to the url without the #tab3.
So I then tried this that I saw somewhere.
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.location = '<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>#tab3;'">Go</a>
Which links, but doesn't reload.
What is the best way to do this?
