I'm trying to load tab content in a jsonp callback, but am not having any luck. I can put a breakpoint on the line that populates a tab and see that it is indeed populated with my desired contents, but it is immediately removed.

All of my tabs are generated dynamically and I do not explicitly create any target divs. This has always worked in the past when loading via a normal ajax request.

I don't see any easy way to hook up my jsonp callback to populate the selected tab.

Here's my tabs init:

1. $("#tabs").tabs({
2.     ajaxOptions : {
3.         dataType : "jsonp",
4.         jsonpCallback : "myCallback"
5.     },
6.     select : getData
7. });

I'm using the getData function to grab the selected tab id (ui.panel.id) and using it in "myCallback".
