Properties

The component has the properties bellow:

selected:

This property sets the currently selected tab of the interface. By default the selected value need to be an integer, specifying th index of the selected tab (starting at 0 for the first tab, 1 for the second...).

attrForSelected:

This property tells the <dile-tabs> component which attribute need to match the selected property to set the active tab. By default atrrForSelected is undefined. In that case the selected property should be an integer and match to the index of the tab. If you set atrrForSelected with a value, then the selected property will be matched with the value of the attribute named in attrForSelected.

<dile-tabs selected="posts" attrForSelected="name">
