I want to do something similar to my attached image. See the tabs? Kind of like a "step(s) process". I know there are several ways to go about it:
1. Use simple javascript to do something like a show/hide; everything is pretty much coded into one page/using includes
2. Use ajax to load the separate pages
3. Other suggestions?

Also the overall design of it is a little confusing to me. The main page will be an employee profile of which subs into the tabbed options shown.

I'm not sure if on each tab option a submit should be required before going to the next option or just one submit option to insert/update all tab options?

Sorry if this is confusing, been up about 2 days straight now and want to get this posted before I go to bed to hopefully awake to some suggestions.
