i dont know how well versed you are with php and jquery. and im also not sure if your talking about jquery tabs or not.

 

But if i were you id use:

header("Location: http://blah.com/billing/?success=true");

 

or something similar. That value doesnt have to be the same. Just something you can check for. This goes in the php file that loads that template.

 

And then id use the location object in javascript to read the query string upon page load. And if that value is there. Then use jquery(granted you are using jquery tabs) and use the selection methods on here
