    <p>I'm trying to set up JQuery UI tabs in the right column of a two-column layout powered by <code>float: left</code>.</p> <p>The problem is: the <strong>header</strong> of the tabs gets sized to have the <strong>same height</strong> as the left column.</p> <p>HTML:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="zone_content"&gt; &lt;div id="zone_main"&gt; &lt;div id="zone_left"&gt; &lt;p&gt;Stuff&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stuff&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stuff&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stuff&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stuff&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="zone_tabs"&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#tabs-1"&gt;Tab 1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#tabs-2"&gt;Another Tab&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;div id="tabs-1"&gt; &lt;p&gt;blah blah blah blah&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="tabs-2"&gt; &lt;p&gt;bloh bloh bloh bloh&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;script&gt; $(function() { $("#zone_tabs").tabs(); }); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>CSS:</p> <pre><code>#zone_main { overflow: auto; width: 100%; } #zone_left { float: left; width: 250px; } #zone_tabs { margin-left: 250px; } </code></pre> <p>See the <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/576pc/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">jsfiddle</a>.</p> <p>I noticed it might be the same question as <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6802358/jquery-ui-tabs-having-problems-with-css-float">this one</a>, but while the answer of adding <code>float: left;</code> on the #zone_tabs corrects the header height, it also push the tabs down to after the end of the left column. (It does so when the left column is large enough: 250px in the jsfiddle ; if one reduce it to 100px in both places where it's specified, the tabs find their intended place.)</p> <p>So, could anyone help me, and explain me why all of this happen ?</p> <p><em>Versions</em>: Chrome 23 or Firefox 23, JQuery 1.8.2, JQuery UI 1.9.1</p>

    1. COJust remove margin left from #zone_tabs and add float left. Of course, if your container, #zone_main, width is less than 250px (#zone_left width) + #zone_tabs width, it will push the tabs under the left column.

    2. CO@MihaiAlex: it works like you say, but in my actual case the width of #zone_left is 500px and it breaks again (tabs pushed under #zone_left), as visible by toying with the jsfiddle. The #zone_main has a width of 100%, not specified.

    3. CO...and the text in the tabs is longer than in the example, which also causes the problem : http://jsfiddle.net/sbZ6C/

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
