Tab selection in React Tab component
29 Aug 202324 minutes to read
We can able to find the tab selection whether it is selected by user interaction or programmatically way in the selecting and selected event argument with the field of isInteracted. When the user changes the tab through click actions it will return true otherwise, it will return false. The following code example depicts to find the tab selecting the state in selecting and selected events.

HyperText Markup Language, commonly referred to as HTML, is the standard markup
language used to create web pages. Along with CSS, and JavaScript, HTML is a cornerstone
technology, used by most websites to create visually engaging web pages, user interfaces
for web applications, and user interfaces for many mobile applications. Web browsers
can read HTML files and render them into visible or audible web pages. HTML describes
the structure of a website semantically along with cues for presentation, making it a
markup language, rather than a programming language.
