• Showing the tabs on top or on the bottom
• onClik or onMouseOver selectable tabs
• Auto rotating within a certain time
• Customizing size, border, margins and each possible color
Version updates:
• 1.1: Possible "auto" width and height as suggested by Jadzia, Thank you!.
• 2.0.1: Google Analytics page tracker integration.
Works as described. No apparent javascript conflicts.
This extension displays tabs in a nice and very configurable way.
However i'm giving 3 stars because the content of tabs (e.g. modules) either load very slowly after all the rest of the page has loaded, or sometimes don't load at all.
I've used the extension in 4 different Joomla sites on 2 different servers and all have the same problem.

I've just tried this, because I was not satisfied of the way the top modules were looking on my forum - in the case of the forum I chose not to have any column in order to give it more space so I've put 3 modules on top of it, but these had different heights due to their content, which didn't look very nice. Well, Dinamod solved the problem in a quite elegant way! And it's been easy to set up, within minutes it was done.
I have been very happy with this extension. I started using Dinamod Tab Modules on a joomla 1.6 site and have since migrated to 1.7 and 2.5 with no issues. The module was easy to install and configure. Overall, I think the module really enhanced my frontpage (as I was able to use 3 instances of the module to deliver more content in a constrained space). Thank you to the developer!
Very good extension. Easy to use & customize. I was very pleased to find it, it allowed me to have a calendar, newsletter links and an rss news feed all within one sidebar.
Seems to be pretty light weight too, but I guess that would partially depend on what type of content you wanted to load within the tabs.

First off, this is a great extension. It does exactly what the developer claims and does it well. Easy to install, configure and manage through Joomla Admin.
The only thing missing (from my perspective) is a fade transition when the content changes (either when the content is auto-rotated or a tab is clicked by the user). Right now, the content changes instantly. A fade from one content to the next would make this extension a home run.
If the developer reads this, I am willing to pay money for the addition of a fade transition. Please let me know if it's possible. thanks!

Hi, I have installed the module and it worked perfectly. However, along the way, it is now not working. Nothing is loaded in the module except the title. Tabs seems to be directed to #. Saw this problem in the forum but nobody has answered.
This module is easy to install and very configurable. And it doesn't conflict with other extensions.
Perfect!
Perfect!
