Hi all,
I have a requirement where I would like to be able to host multiple web parts in a single part of the screen by using, for example, some kind of tabcard system where one web part can be displayed at a time. Clicking on a different tab would of course display a different web part.
Has anybody done something similar to this or can anyone think of a way to simulate this type of behaviour My undertsanding is that by default a web part zone can only display multiple web parts in a horizontal or vertical orientation.
If anyone is aware of a third party web part that can host multiple web parts in this manner I'd be interested to hear about that too.
Multiple web parts on a tabcard?

Yes I've got exactly that working under ASP.Net 2.0. 3 web parts on 3 seperate divs and I can just show or hide the divs accordingly.
The web parts I will be using however are potentially going to be very complex so I was hoping to only have to load them if the user clicks on a particular tab.

Depending on how complex the web parts are (and I am thinking in terms of memory and load times) you could write a custom web part that loads the others into a DIV where all but one are hidden. Then hide/show the DIVs as needed.
Not sure if there is a 3rd party web part that can do this or not.
