Tab select event not working for jQuery 1.8.3

Question

I am trying to get the tab select event fired for quite some time for the jQuery 1.8.3 but not sure why it can't. I fiddled with jsfiddle and have working mockups but when I apply those changes to my jquery file - it doesn't work.

The only way remains is to upgrade the version to newest but I would prefer not to introduce this change for now because we are in final stage of deployment to Prod.!

What version of jquery UI are you using? the latest doesn't have a select event. — Kevin B, May 13 '13 at 20:59
I tried to update the picture again. jQuery-ui.js and jQuery-1.8.3.js — kulNinja, May 13 '13 at 21:28
You are using jQuery UI 1.10, there is no select event. try using the activate event instead. — Kevin B, May 13 '13 at 21:32

"activate" worked for me! As Kevin B mentioned for JQueryUI- 1.10 select event is no more!

$('#tabs').tabs({
    activate: function (event, ui) {

        alert("hi");
    } 
});
