Customizing the Style of the Native Tabs when using the Web

I have a solution that must run in the WC as well as the SC. Base on user feedback, I must use tab panels to navigate through 60 some forms in the solution.

In the ServoyGuy blog, I found a method that described how to customize the style of the tabs in the web client.

I pasted the code as a single line into the default value field of the dialog box that created a new global variable called wc_tabStyles

Next I added the global variable as the dataprovider for a field that I put onto my main form.

The field was set to HTML-area and non-editable. On the main form I put a tab panel containing two unrelated forms.

When I opened the WC, I saw a blank field with wc_tabStyles as the dataprovider and the default style WC tabs on the tabpanel.

Has anyone tried to customize the style of the tabs in the WC? Has anyone had success with this method, if so, can you tell me what I am missing or doing wrong?

My thanks in advance for any help in solving this issue.
