Tabs - Select\Show Event

Tabs - Select\Show Event

While working with the Tab widget, ive encounter some problem i would like to address.
I attached the Tab widget "select" event.
One of my links on the page have a method that invoke the Tab "select" method.
the problem is:

If the tab is not selected the "select" event will be invoked. but if it is already selected it won't invoke the event.
I think that when ever i use the method it should invoke the event.

What do u think ?
