Thanks!

I did some digging through my old code and found following which might be helpful.  The HTML at the top would go in each tab custom object and the script would go in a custom object outside the tab set.

<table border='0' style='width: 100%'>
	<tr>
		<td style='width: 50%; text-align:left; padding: 10px;'>
			<img class="btnprev" src="/BackgroundImageGenerator.axd?className=StyledButton&classProperties=caption:Previous+Module;iconSetStyle:VistaRound;baseColor:%23DDDDDD;disabled:False" onclick="selectTab('prev')"/>
		</td>
		<td style='width: 50%; text-align:right; padding: 10px;'>
			<img class="btnnext" src="/BackgroundImageGenerator.axd?className=StyledButton&classProperties=caption:Next+Module;iconSetStyle:VistaRound;baseColor:%23DDDDDD;disabled:False" onclick="selectTab('next')"/>
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>

<script type="text/javascript">
     var tabIndexes, tabSetId, selectedTabIndex;

     function pageLoad() {
          $.each($LM._tabSets, function(key, value) {
               tabSetId = key;
          });

          if (tabSetId) {
               tabIndexes = $LM._tabSets[tabSetId].tabIds;
               var tabStripElementId = 'master_DefaultContent_rts_ts' + tabSetId + '_t';
               var tabStrip = $find(tabStripElementId);
               selectedTabIndex = tabStrip._selectedIndex;
          }
     }

     function selectTab(action) {
          var tabId, tab;

          if (action == 'prev') {
               tabId = tabIndexes[selectedTabIndex-1];
               tab = $('li.tab_'+tabId).find('a.rtsLink').trigger('click');
               tab.find('span.rtsTxt').trigger('click');
          }

          if (action == 'next') {
               tabId = tabIndexes[selectedTabIndex+1];
               tab = $('li.tab_'+tabId).find('a.rtsLink').trigger('click');
               tab.find('span.rtsTxt').trigger('click');
          }
     }
</script>
