Answer 1

For this link (notice the lowercase "s" in "second" to match your example):

http://xxxx.com/mypage.php#second

Try this:

  // get the hash from the location
var tab = window.location.hash;

  // get the <a> element with the href that matches the location hash,
  //    and fire a click event on it
$('div.tabs ul.tabNavigation a[href=' + tab + ']').click();
