My class extends extends TabActivity

TabHost mTabHost =  getTabHost();

TabHost.TabSpec tab1 =mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab1");
TabHost.TabSpec tab2 =mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab2");

tab1 .setIndicator("title tab1");
tab2 .setIndicator("title tab2");
mTabHost.addTab(tab1);mTabHost.addTab(tab2);

TabHost.setCurrentTab(0 or 1)

Can anybody guide me how do I change the background image or color of selected tab?

What if you register for TabHost.OnTabChanged events and call mTabHost.getCurrentTabView() to get the View, then view.setBackgroundResource()?

Does this solve your problem? Basically calling setBackgroundDrawable on each tab view with a selector?
