title: get active tab name into a hidden field at runtime
body: <p>I have aspx page with tabs like below...</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;ul class="tabs-menu" style="list-style-type: none;" &gt;
          &lt;li class="active"&gt;&lt;a class="anchor" href="#ATab" style="text-decoration: none;" &gt; A&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;&lt;a class="anchor" href="#BTab" style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;B&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;&lt;a class="anchor" href="#CTab" style="text-decoration:none;"&gt;C&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is the hidden field that should store the active tab and pass it to a function when clicked on submit button on Modal popup</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input type="hidden" name="findTab" id="findTabname" value=""/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am showing this ASPX page as Modal pop up from another page using Jquery like below </p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#Test").live('click', function OpenSearchDialog() {
          $("#dialog_testsearch").load("Test.aspx", function() {
            $(this).dialog({
                autoOpen: true,
                modal: true,
                width: 750,
                buttons: {
                    Go: function() {
                        var current_tab = $("#anchor").tabs('option', 'selected');
                     //anchor is my class for the list items
           callTestFunction()
  
                    },
                    Close: function() {
                        $(this).dialog("close");
                    }
                }
            });
            $(this).siblings('.ui-dialog-titlebar').remove();
            $(this).container.css('height', 'auto');
        });
        return false;
    });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now My question is how do I get the name of active name into that hidden field ? And then into this Jquery when clicked on Go button..
  Because I wanted to execute functions based on tabs selected</p>
  
  <pre><code> function callTestFunction()
     {
         if A
          //do this
         if B 
         //do this
         if c 
          //do this 
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am really hitting my head to the wall to this simple thing. But I couldn't get it working</p>
