How to foucs or auto select a jquery tab after javascript validation

Hi All,

I am using this below method to initialize the tab view.

$(function() {
  $('#container-1').tabs();
});

JSP code piece :

<div class="tabcontainer">
<div id="container-1" >
      <ul style="padding:1px;border-bottom:1px solid #8796A5;">
            <li><a href="#fragment-1"><span>Tab 1</span></a></li>
            <li><a href="#fragment-2"><span>Tab 1</span></a></li>
       </ul>
      <div id="fragment-1" >
             <center>    
                   <%@ include file='tab1.jsp'%>
              </center>
       </div>
      <div id="fragment-2" >
             <center>    
                   <%@ include file='tab2.jsp'%>
              </center>
       </div>
</div>    
</div>

while loading this JSP page i got the Tab 1 (Default selected) & Tab 2 view.

Scenario : I have a save button which is common to both the tabs. I entered some input fields in Tab 1 and trying to save the page. I am doing a validation in java script save button which checks the values in Tab 2... if it is empty I want to focus the Tab 2 to user.

Tried : For this scenario I tried $('#container-1').tabs(2); after my java script validation alert. Its not throwing any script error as well not working...

Can anyone help me to solve this issue...!

Thanks in Advance.
