ur prob going to need to use positioning… i just did something similar, only my “blocks” are all on top of each other. I used Absolute, but you will likely need to use Relative to space them all out like that. or maybe use Grid. you can take a look at [ranttit.net](http://ranttit.net) until i need to test my next bit. ---

Thanks for your response. Well my tabs are working fine If I go to them individually but here I want to switch to tabs using those blocks. Like here in scrreshot u can see 1st block says TAB1 so when I click it it should take me to TAB1 Pane. I am trying to achieve this, hope i am properly translating the issue. ---

if that TAB 1 text is a hyperlink, then clicking on it should take you to the tab1.html page… when you :hover or :focus does it select the link? maybe there is a z-order problem and something is in front of it? ---

The website has just 1 index.html page which has total of 9 tabs i.e. Home, Tab1, Tab2,…,Tab9. On Home(Tab) I have created 8 blocks (2x4 as in screenshot) Tab1, Tab2,…,Tab8. So, when I click on 1st Block i.e. Tab1(hyperlink) it should take me to corresponding Tab1 Panel. I tried #tab1 but it doesnt takes me anywhere otherwise individually they are working fine. Please help. ---

if you are just trying to jump around to different places on the page, you can use the anchor tag with href="#id\_name"… that will jump to the element on the page with the id=“id\_name” attribute. ur going to need to post some code if you need more help.
