How to change the body of tab onClick of same tab in fragmentTabhost

Question

What I am doing:

• I have a fragmentabhost in a fragment that has 3-tabs in it.
• On click of tabs i am able to change the fragments dynamically
• On click of first tab i am displaying RatingAscending.class

What I am trying to do:

• Now Onclick of the same tab I want to display RatingDescending.class

---

Note: in the onResume() I am able to detect click event for the firsttab

---

Now how can I change the tab to RatingDescending.class from RatingAscending.class when I click the tab for the second time

Fragment1.java

public class Fragment1 extends SherlockFragment{

    private FragmentTabHost mTabHost;

    private static int count=0;
    //Mandatory Constructor
    public Fragment1() {
    }

    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    }

    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment1,container, false);


        mTabHost = (FragmentTabHost)rootView.findViewById(android.R.id.tabhost);
        mTabHost.setup(getActivity(), getChildFragmentManager(), R.id.realtabcontent);

        mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("fragmentb").setIndicator("Rating"),
                RatingAscending.class, null);
        mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("fragmentc").setIndicator("Price"),
                PriceAscending.class, null);
        mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("fragmentd").setIndicator("Distance"),
                DistanceAscending.class, null);


        return rootView;
    }

    @Override
    public void onResume() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onResume();

        mTabHost.getTabWidget().getChildAt(0).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {

                count++;
                Log.d("You clicked ", count+"time");

            }
        });
    }   
}
