thanks BKBK, but is not really working. is not the whole layout that needs to be affected, only one layoutarea.

when i do this, it throws the layout out of wack, and when clicked, it does nothing (no error either)

I understand. You could place the DIV within the layoutarea, as in this example:

<script type="text/javascript">

f = function () {

    alert('Karamba!')

}

</script>

<cflayout type="tab" name="tabLayout">

    <cflayoutarea name="tab1" title="Tab 1">

       Tab 1 contents

    </cflayoutarea>

     <cflayoutarea name="tab2" title="Tab 2">

           <div  onclick="f()" >

       Tab 2 contents

    </div>

    </cflayoutarea>     

</cflayout>

I used this to submit a form using ajax whenever a new tab is selected.  This is essentially the onclick portion:
ColdFusion.Layout.onTabActivate = function(tab)

<script type="text/javascript">
ColdFusion.Layout.onTabActivate = function(tab){
      ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm('myform', 'my.cfm')
  }
  </script>

    <cfform id="myform" name="myform" action="my.cfm" method="post">
  <cflayout type="tab" name="tabLayout">
      <cflayoutarea name="tab1" title="Tab 1">
        Tab 1 contents (form input)
      </cflayoutarea>
      <cflayoutarea name="tab2" title="Tab 2">
        Tab 2 contents (form input) 
    </cflayoutarea> 
  </cflayout>
  </form>
