im a novice when it comes to this HTML stuff, so im not sure how to get this to work. Ive been following this description of tabs https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_tabs.asp
Im periodically sending a GET request and receiving a string ID, so i want to create a tab for each unique ID I receive, but im not sure how to do this.
<div class="tab">
<button class="tablinks" onclick="openCity(event, 'London')" id="defaultOpen">SOAP5</button>
<button class="tablinks" onclick="openCity(event, 'Paris')">GDAL</button>
<button class="tablinks" onclick="openCity(event, 'Tokyo')">IDK</button>
</div>
<div id="London" class="tabcontent" style="height:100%;">
<!--#include virtual='navigation.htm' -->
</div>
<div id="Paris" class="tabcontent" style="height:100%;">
<!--#include virtual='navigation.htm' -->
</div>
<div id="Tokyo" class="tabcontent" style="height:100%;">
<!--#include virtual='navigation.htm' -->
</div>
<script>
function openCity(evt, cityName) {
var i, tabcontent, tablinks;
tabcontent = document.getElementsByClassName("tabcontent");
for (i = 0; i < tabcontent.length; i++) {
tabcontent[i].style.display = "none";
}
tablinks = document.getElementsByClassName("tablinks");
for (i = 0; i < tablinks.length; i++) {
tablinks[i].className = tablinks[i].className.replace(" active", "");
}
document.getElementById(cityName).style.display = "block";
evt.currentTarget.className += " active";
}
// Get the element with id="defaultOpen" and click on it
document.getElementById("defaultOpen").click();
</script>
function RefreshData() {
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
// Periodic data request
var intervalID = setInterval(function GetData() {
xmlhttp.open('GET', 'formInfo.htm', true);
if ((xmlhttp.readyState = xmlhttp.OPENED)) {
xmlhttp.send();
}
}, 1000);
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (this.readyState === this.DONE) {
UpdateTabs(xmlhttp);
}
};
}
function UpdateTabs(xmlhttp) {
//How to create new tabs here?
}
