Theres a few mods out there like this one that let your zen cart products have tabs. We needed something slightly more cutom (we have some weird tabs) we made a simple mod for ourselves.
We'll start by making a tab called "tutorials". Just duplicate these directions and replace "tutorials" with anything else to make ome other tabs as well.
ALTER TABLE `products_description` ADD `products_tutorials` TEXT NOT NULL ;
Just like in the Tariff mod, add the new sql field to admin/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php
$parameters = array('products_name' => '', 'products_description' => '', 'products_tutorials' => '', 'products_url' => '', 'products_id' => '', 'products_quantity' => '', 'products_model' => '', 'products_image' => '', 'products_price' => '', 'products_virtual' => DEFAULT_PRODUCT_PRODUCTS_VIRTUAL, 'products_weight' => '', 'products_date_added' => '', 'products_last_modified' => '', 'products_date_available' => '', 'products_status' => '', 'products_tax_class_id' => DEFAULT_PRODUCT_TAX_CLASS_ID, 'manufacturers_id' => '', 'products_quantity_order_min' => '', 'products_quantity_order_units' => '', 'products_priced_by_attribute' => '', 'product_is_free' => '', 'product_is_call' => '', 'products_quantity_mixed' => '', 'product_is_always_free_shipping' => DEFAULT_PRODUCT_PRODUCTS_IS_ALWAYS_FREE_SHIPPING, 'products_qty_box_status' => PRODUCTS_QTY_BOX_STATUS, 'products_quantity_order_max' => '0', 'products_sort_order' => '0', 'products_discount_type' => '0', 'products_discount_type_from' => '0', 'products_price_sorter' => '0', 'master_categories_id' => '', 'products_backorder_allowed' => 1, 'product_customs' => '', 'products_tariff_country' => 0, 'products_tariff' => '', 'products_fragile' => '', 'products_upc' => '', 'products_isbn' => '' ); $pInfo = new objectInfo($parameters); if (isset($_GET['pID']) && empty($_POST)) { $product = $db->Execute("select pd.products_name, pd.products_description, pd.products_tutorials, pd.products_url, p.products_id, p.products_quantity, p.products_model, p.products_image, p.products_price, p.products_virtual, p.products_weight, p.products_date_added, p.products_last_modified, date_format(p.products_date_available, '%Y-%m-%d') as products_date_available, p.products_status, p.products_tax_class_id, p.manufacturers_id, p.products_quantity_order_min, p.products_quantity_order_units, p.products_priced_by_attribute, p.product_is_free, p.product_is_call, p.products_quantity_mixed, p.product_is_always_free_shipping, p.products_qty_box_status, p.products_quantity_order_max, p.products_sort_order, p.products_discount_type, p.products_discount_type_from, p.products_price_sorter, p.master_categories_id, p.products_backorder_allowed, p.product_customs, p.products_tariff_country , p.products_tariff , p.products_fragile, p.products_upc, p.products_isbn from " .
