jquery tabs that when minimised overflow on the right to a drop down menu

I've been asked to provide a jquery tabs solution for a lot of tabs, more than will ever fit into a browser window. What's been suggested is that as the tabs are hidden on the right they overflow into a drop down menu making them available 开发者_开发百科without making the tabs two line or scrolling to reveal the hidden tabs. Any ideas would be appreciated.

jQuery UI provides plugin for tabs functionality. Have a look at the link
