How we can create a navigation or menu with tabs using HTML CSS JS? Solution: See this Horizontal Tab Menu With jQuery and CSS, Navigation Using Tabs.
Previously I have shared many types of navigation and tabs, but this combination of these two programs. Basically, tabs are a group of item’s section which has buttons to navigate. We can use tabs as a navbar by placing them horizontally and top of the webpage. Actually we can create a beautiful menu bar using the tabs design.
Today you will learn to create Navigation Using Tabs. Basically, there are 6 tabs which contain menu labels like home, about, etc. All the tabs placed in the top of the webpage and they are fixed, you can switch tabs by clicking on them and you also can use left and right arrow key in the keyboard. There also is a toggle feature to open and close the menu bar which is actually a group of tabs.
So, Today I am sharing Horizontal Tab Menu With jQuery and CSS. Here I have used jQuery of save time and easy work, as you know jQuery is JS library that’s why I am putting this in JavaScript category. This is also a responsive design, that means it will fit the large and small screen size. I am sure that this program will helpful for you and you will like it to use.
If you are thinking now how this tab menu actually is, then see the preview given below.
Preview Of Navigation Bar Using Tabs
See this video preview to getting an idea of how this tab menu bar looks like.
Now you can see this visually, you also can see it live by pressing the button given above. If you like this, then get the source code of its.

Horizontal Tab Menu With jQuery and CSS Source Code
Before sharing source code, let’s talk about it. First I have created the menu section using HTML <nav> and put lists inside that using <ul> and <li>Â tags. As you can see in the preview there are some alphabets thumbnail, for creating these I have used HTML Data-* attribute (info). We can store custom data using this attribute.
After that, I have created all the sections and their thumbnail using the same Data-* attribute also I have placed a div for menu and close buttons. Now using CSS I have placed all the elements on the right place. For creating the thumbnail effect I have put the alphabet in nav and section and decreased the opacity of it.
As you know this is also a responsive design, for creating that I have used CSS @keyframe property. jQuery handling here the toggle feature of slide menu section and on/off switch. There also is slide effect as you can see, that also handled dynamically by jQuery. In sum, this is a perfect and advance menu bar using tabs.
Left all other things you will understand after getting the codes, I can’t explain all in writing. For creating this program you have to create 3 files. First for HTML, second for CSS, and the third for JavaScript. Follow the steps to creating this without any error.
index.html
Create an HTML file named ‘index.html‘ and put these codes given below.
