Description #

An <sp-tab> element surfaces a label attribute to serve as its default text content when none is available in the DOM. An icon may be assigned to the element via the icon slot; e.g. <sp-tab><svg slot="icon" aria-label="Tab w/ Icon">...</svg></sp-tab>. Associate an <sp-tab> element with the <sp-tab-panel> that represents its content with the value attribute.

    <sp-tab label="Tab 2" value="2"></sp-tab>
    <sp-tab label="Tab 3" value="3" disabled></sp-tab>
    <sp-tab label="Tab 4" value="4"></sp-tab>
    <sp-tab-panel value="1">Content for Tab 1 is selectable</sp-tab-panel>
    <sp-tab-panel value="2">Content for Tab 2 is selected</sp-tab-panel>
    <sp-tab-panel value="3">Content for Tab 3 is not selectable</sp-tab-panel>
    <sp-tab-panel value="4">Content for Tab 4 is selectable</sp-tab-panel>
</sp-tabs>
