I want to be able to have two levels of tabs control the browser history, to allow for back/forward button functions. I would like the first row of tabs open up a set of links, that would open one more step, and then allow the back button to trace back each step one by one.

Example is:

My Friends (The First Tab) --Click to--> Joe Brown (A friend) --Click to--> Joe's Profile

Then be able to use the back button to go back through each process in order. Each step would have to change the URL hash. I have been successful with doing this at a single tier level using YUI, but once I try to go past the second step, it won't work as the first step does. This may sound confusing, but basically I have the first tier working just like this:

When you click the "Tab One Content" under the first tab, I need it to open new content just as the first tab did, and affect the URL just like the first tab did, in order to manipulate the back/forward button. Can anyone help with this? I'm going on 7 hours of articles/research and feeling burnt out?!a
