I am using the jQuery tabs on a main form. The main form has a contents container and an image used to call a js save function.

What is the most efficient way to get the save function to pick up the field values from all the remote forms that the tabs use to load the div container?

Background - this is a 'User Preference' form that has grown to be larger than could be displayed on the screen without scrolling. So I have broken it into three tabs. When each tab is selected the container is loaded with one of three fragments. My desire is to have one save button on the same form as the tabs that will gather all the field values from these three forms which have unique id's.
