asp.net mvc 4 - Jquery Tabs MVC 4 - Redirect to to tab from controller -

i have following code 'selectedtabtofind' set in controller. used validation, correct tab displayed.

$("#tabs").tabs( { active: $("#selectedtabtofind").val(), cache: false });  <div id="tabs"> <ul>     <li><a href="#tabs-1" title="view">view</a></li>     <li><a href="#tabs-2" title="update">update</a></li>     <li><a href="#tabs-3" title="validate">validate</a></li>     <li><a href="#tabs-4" title="notes">notes</a></li> </ul> <div id="tabs-1">      @html.partial("view",model) </div> <div id="tabs-2">      @html.partial("update",model) </div> <div id="tabs-3">      @html.partial("validate",model.validatemodel) </div> <div id="tabs-4">     @html.partial("notes", model) </div> 

view tab - displays information

update tab - can update information on tab

validate tab - can update information on tab

notes tab - displays list of information separate page outwith tabs add/update note

the validation works , displays correctly update , validate tabs. redirect not work when add/update note uses separate page outwith tabs.

i have used following code before redirect tab

return redirect(url.action("view", new { id = note.id }) + "#tabs-4"); 

and not work above code

if comment out 'active' works correctly

$("#tabs").tabs(     {     //active: $("#selectedtabtofind").val(),     cache: false     }); 

how redirect correct tab keep active option validation?

when redirectto tab, tab becomes automatically active. cannot , contrary!

from jquery tabs doc

active type: boolean or integer default: 0 panel open. multiple types supported:

boolean: setting active false collapse panels. requires collapsible option true. integer: zero-based index of panel active (open). negative value selects panels going backward last panel.
