You can check out the site that I am working on right now.
 
http://docresource.org
 
the front page is made using the quicktabs module (which is AWESOME!) and a LOT of custom CSS and HTML but no custom PHP.
 
I use quicktabs on another section of the site for horizontal tabs too. if you’re interested you’ll need to register. which is free.

You would use Views to create a page for each tab. Under page settings, you will find the menu options. You should make a default menu tab with one page and a plain menu tab with the others.

Hi, I have to move our static HTML site to DRUPAL. I am one week young user of drupal and I am reading and learning from others experiences. I will appreciate if you can give me your suggestions on the best way to restructure the following similar page (with tabs) to DRUPAL?
