# Example #2 - Tabs and DragDrop

## Introduction

This plugin demonstrates how to use tabs and interact with i2b2 objects by accepting DragDrop messages (SDX Objects). The three tab layout, which separates plugin input (specify data), plugin output (view results), and help content is a model that can be used by many plugins. SDX stands for Standard Data Exchange, which is the i2b2 web client framework's mechanism for handling drag and drop objects. The SDX, AJAX, and other utility functions provided by the framework greatly simplify the process of creating new plugins.

## Instructions

Navigate to the "Specify Data" tab. Then, drag and drop an i2b2 object such as a search term or previous query onto the input box. Finally, click the "View Results" tab for information about that object.
