# OnClientSelectedTabChanged

The **OnClientSelectedTabChanged** client-side event occurs when a non-selected tab is clicked.

The event handler receives two parameters:

1. The instance of the ribbonbar firing the event.

2. An eventArgs parameter containing the following methods:

   * **get_tab()** returns a reference to the ribbonbar tab which is the new selected tab.

   * **get_previouslySelectedTab()** returns a reference to the previously selected tab of the ribbonbar.

   * **get_domEvent()** returns the DOM event object.
