that's ok imho, we are in the same community and help with any coding.

Be aware that tabs are rendered lazy. So if you have a form spread over 
tabs, you have to set "deferredRender" to false to get all fields submitted.

For any change inside the tab you need to call a doLayout() on the 
tabpanel itself.
