APEX tabs

We have been documenting our systems flow using Oracle APEX. It is a really user friendly, declarative programming environment. As an old 3 GL guy, however, I find this difficult at times.

I can't tell you how many times I want to go into TextPad, or vi, and just start typing a jsp page for needed user interface functionality. On this project, however, I decided to move into the 21st century and use something more...ahem...productive.

In all fairness, it is a good tool, and in general very productive. However, the tab stuff is difficult to a mind boggling degree. If you have problems, I direct you to the single best resource I found on the web for a dummy proof guide to tabs on your APEX pages.

This guy did a great job with it.
