Select Tab from direct link

Select Tab from direct link

Good day everyone.
I'm using Jquery Tabs UI and loading content via Ajax. I'm trying to
select one of the tabs from a link on another page. I'm not having any
luck with the example on the jquery docs page.
When I assign the #standard as an ID on the A tag it does not load the
content of that tab. Example: <li><a href="users-standard.php"
id="#standard">Users</a></li>
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!!
// Jquery Stuff
$(document).ready(function(){
var $tabs = $("#tabs-container").tabs();
$('#standard').click(function() { // bind click event to link
$tabs.tabs('select', 2); // switch to third tab
return false;
});
});
// HTML Stuff
<div id="tabs-container">
<ul>
<li><a href="users-admin.php">Administrators</a></li>
<li><a href="users-standard.php">Users</a></li>
<li><a href="users-notify.php">Process Users</a></li>
<li><a href="users-activity.php">User Activity</a></li>
<li><a href="db-backup.php">Database Backup</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
