Checking the active tab

Hi!
I'm having problems to find out if the tab is active or no. In the web page there is 4-5 different tabs.
Here's the part of the element of tab, where it's mentioned if it is active.
<section ng-controller="BasicInformationCtrl" class="ng-scope active" style="padding-top: 49px;">
My problem is that how I can get that information out so that I can use them in my verifications?
I'm using Sahi Java driver.

Hi
$tabs = _collect( "_div", "/./", _in($navBar)); for $element in $tabs if $element.class.indexOf("active") then return element
Just pseudocode, but I hope it gives you the right directions.

Here's the solution I finally used to check which tab is active.
The first tab was the trickiest because it didn't have any ID. So I decided to check if some information existing only on that tab is visible.
browser.heading6("Unique title").isVisible()
For the rest of the tabs case was easier because I noticed they have ID. so basically checking was following:
browser.byId("Unique ID of tab").fetch("className").contains("active")

Only thing is that with Sahi java driver there is no _collect available. The closest method is collectSimilar(). Now I have to study if that is able to do the same trick.
