bootstrap-nav-tab-scrollable

Synopsis

Simple horizontally scrollable nav tab for Bootstrap 3.0 (good for mobile sites), i.e. for product images on m-commerce.

Works with touch events, example image: http://imgur.com/3y4qoje

Code Example

Just use the normal Bootstrap Nav-tab construction, adding the horizontal-scrollable-tabs and the nav-tabs-horizontal classes for the desired style effect.

It's also possible to add arrows for extra control, but touch events will work to scroll horizontally the tab.

    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-xs-12">
          <div id="js_image_selection" class="horizontal-scrollable-tabs">
            <!-- Added for controls (will be invisible on bigger viewports) - touch/swipe/dragging does work though -->
            <div class="scroller arrow-left"><i class="fa fa-arrow-left"></i></div> 
            <div class="scroller arrow-right"><i class="fa fa-arrow-right"></i></div>
            <div class="horizontal-tabs">
              <!-- nav-tabs-horizontal added for the style -->
              <ul role="tablist" class="nav nav-tabs nav-tabs-horizontal">
                <!-- Normal bootstrap tabs -->
                <li role="presentation" class="active"><a href="#image01" data-toggle="tab">Tab 1</a></li>
                <li role="presentation"><a href="#image02" data-toggle="tab">Tab 2</a></li>
              </ul>
            </div>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>

Motivation

Whilst developing a mobile commerce website there was the need for a product gallery that had such behavior, unable to find a working component decided to build one myself.

Installation

Simply apply the stylesheet and the js to your project and import it on your HTMl as such: On the header the StyleSheet

    <link href="bootstrap-nav-tab-scrollable.css" rel="stylesheet">

Before closing the body import and execute:

    <!-- Import the component -->
    <script src="bootstrap-nav-tab-scrollable.js"></script>
    <!-- Execute the plugin -->
    <script type="text/JavaScript">
      $("#js_image_selection").horizontalTabs();
    </script>

API Reference

Currently, there is only one option, to initialize the horizontal tabs. As such:

Initialize

Call it after the element was rendered.

     $("#ID_OF_ELEMENT").horizontalTabs();
