I already know how to use the [Tab:tabname] inside an HTML object but i'd like to simplify this by making this a Skin Object instead of adding an HTML container and then the tabname

My Question:
In version of DNN 5.6.1, is there a "Simple" way to convert the Token of [Tab:tabname] to a skin object in DNN 5.6.1 ?  This is so that i can just include it in my skin and be done with it.

If yes, please share an example code sample? Or is this feature not yet available in DNN 5.6.1?

Asking the community to Please advise...
Thanks

you may use [TEXT] Skin object with "[Tab:Tabname]" content and tokenreplace turned on, see http://test.timo-design.nl/dnn/skindoc/DotNetNuke%205%20Skin%20Objects%20Beta%20Doc%204.pdf

Thank You so much for pointing me in the right direction.... i think i almost have it... however the following modified code failed to produce the token replace equivalent when i dropped it into my skin. Please Review and advise.

i placed the following in the header of my ASCX file
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="TEXT" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Text.ascx" %>


Then i placed the following TEXT control in my Skin where it did not work... it did not produce the true Tab Name but rather just produced or rendered [Tab:TabName]
<div id="PageTitlePane" class="PageTitlePaneClass" runat="server"><dnn:TEXT runat="server" id="dnnTEXT" replaceTokens="True" />[Tab:TabName]</div>

Please advise what i am doing wrong... the above
I'm so close.... i hope?
Again please advise...

you need to use < dnn:TEXT runat="server" id="dnnTEXT" text="[Tab:TabName]" replaceTokens="True" />
