How to save (submit) a form and stay on "tabbed" page?

I have a form created in script case for a users settings. The form however is broken into pages under the layout folder. So let’s say I have these tabbed pages:

{ tab1 } { tab2 } {tab3} { tab4 }

My issue is how can I save the form from { tab3 }, and have it use an ajax request to post instead of refreshing the page and having it put me back on { tab1 }. I’m needing the ability to stay on the tab I save from instead of it refreshing the frame and putting me on the first tab.

Is there anyway to do this within the software without touching any of the back-end code? If not, How would I go about resolving an issue like this? Any ideas? Thanks!
