Vertical Tabs with JQuery?

Have a look at the jQuery UI vertical Tabs Docu. I try out it, it worked fine.

<style type="text/css">
/* Vertical Tabs
----------------------------------*/
.ui-tabs-vertical { width: 55em; }
.ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav { padding: .2em .1em .2em .2em; float: left; width: 12em; }
.ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav li { clear: left; width: 100%; border-bottom-width: 1px !important; border-right-width: 0 !important; margin: 0 -1px .2em 0; }
.ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav li a { display:block; }
.ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-tabs-selected { padding-bottom: 0; padding-right: .1em; border-right-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; }
.ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-panel { padding: 1em; float: right; width: 40em;}
</style> 

<script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $("#tabs").tabs().addClass('ui-tabs-vertical ui-helper-clearfix');
        $("#tabs li").removeClass('ui-corner-top').addClass('ui-corner-left');

    });
</script>

A look at the Freedom tab might have what you need.

Let me know if you find something you like. I worked on the exact same problem a few months ago and decided to implement myself. I like what I did, but it might have been nice to use a standard library.

I've created a vertical menu and tabs changing in the middle of the page. I changed two words on the code source and I set apart two different divs

menu:

<div class="arrowgreen">
  <ul class="tabNavigation"> 
    <li> <a href="#first" title="Home">Tab 1</a></li>
    <li> <a href="#secund" title="Home">Tab 2</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

content:

<div class="pages">
  <div id="first">
    CONTENT 1
  </div>
  <div id="secund">
    CONTENT 2
  </div>
</div>

the code works with the div apart

$(function () {
    var tabContainers = $('div.pages > div');

    $('div.arrowgreen ul.tabNavigation a').click(function () {
        tabContainers.hide().filter(this.hash).show();

        $('div.arrowgreen ul.tabNavigation a').removeClass('selected');
        $(this).addClass('selected');

        return false;
    }).filter(':first').click();
});

//o_O\\  (Poker Face) i know its late

just add beloww css style

<style type="text/css">

   /* Vertical Tabs ----------------------------------*/
 .ui-tabs-vertical { width: 55em; }
 .ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav { padding: .2em .1em .2em .2em; float: left; width: 12em; }
 .ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav li { clear: left; width: 100%; border-bottom-width: 1px !important; border-right-width: 0 !important; margin: 0 -1px .2em 0; }
 .ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav li a { display:block; }
 .ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-tabs-selected { padding-bottom: 0; padding-right: .1em; border-right-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; }
 .ui-tabs-vertical .ui-tabs-panel { padding: 1em; float: right; width: 40em;}

</style>

UPDATED ! http://jqueryui.com/tabs/#vertical

I wouldn't expect vertical tabs to need different Javascript from horizontal tabs. The only thing that would be different is the CSS for presenting the tabs and content on the page. JS for tabs generally does no more than show/hide/maybe load content.
