RE: Tabpanel with multiselect Example (Accordian)

Victor,

The tabs in the tablist with multiselect equal to true are basically buttons that hide or show content in the asscoiated tab panel.  So when you hide a tab panel you basically cannot navigate to the controls and content in that tab panel.

This type of interaction is sometimes called an Accordian widget.
