I have a form generated using the Form API, which I'm having some success cleaning up with the use of the vertical tabs functions. I'd like to change which tab is active following a form submission, but am having no luck trying to do this by editing $form_state in the submit handler. '#default_tab' only works on the first form load.

What's the 'right' way of doing this?

Hi,
Try using the $form = form_builder($form_id, $form, $form_state); with the expected form id and you will get the form object which can be rendered on the required template.
