        notebook.setnaturalsize()

This is Pmw notebook demo code. I want that when i clicked a page print out its name.
for example when i clicked Appearance page its print out "you clicked "Appearance" page" or "you clicked "Images" page"
how can i do it?
i tried that:

notebook.bind("<1>",self.showname)
def showname(self):
print self.getcurselection()

but it not works.

python

You can bind each page of the notebook (each page is a Frame)

title = 'Pmw.NoteBook demonstration'

# Import Pmw from this directory tree.
import sys
sys.path[:0] = ['../../..']

import Tkinter
import Pmw

class Demo:
    def __init__(self, parent):
	# Create and pack the NoteBook.
        notebook = Pmw.NoteBook(parent)
        self.notebook = notebook # <-- ADDED
        notebook.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)

        # Add the "Appearance" page to the notebook.
        page = self.add_page('Appearance')
        notebook.tab('Appearance').focus_set()

        # Create the "Toolbar" contents of the page.
        group = Pmw.Group(page, tag_text = 'Toolbar')
        group.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)
        b1 = Tkinter.Checkbutton(group.interior(), text = 'Show toolbar')
        b1.grid(row = 0, column = 0)
        b2 = Tkinter.Checkbutton(group.interior(), text = 'Toolbar tips')
        b2.grid(row = 0, column = 1)

        # Create the "Startup" contents of the page.
        group = Pmw.Group(page, tag_text = 'Startup')
        group.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)
        home = Pmw.EntryField(group.interior(), labelpos = 'w',
            label_text = 'Home page location:')
        home.pack(fill = 'x', padx = 20, pady = 10)

        # Add two more empty pages.
        page = self.add_page('Helpers')
        page = self.add_page('Images')

        notebook.setnaturalsize()
  
    def add_page(self, pagename):
        page = self.notebook.add(pagename)
        page.bind("<1>",self.showname)
        return page
        
    def showname(self, event):
        print self.notebook.getcurselection()

thanks for answer.it works when i click on frame but dont works when i click "Appearance" tab text. is it possible write pagename when i clicked tab?

It was more difficult. The following code works for me

title = 'Pmw.NoteBook demonstration'

# Import Pmw from this directory tree.
import sys
#sys.path[:0] = ['../../..']

import Tkinter
import Pmw
from functools import partial

class Demo:
    def __init__(self, parent):
	# Create and pack the NoteBook.
        notebook = Pmw.NoteBook(parent)
        self.notebook = notebook # <-- ADDED
        notebook.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)

        # Add the "Appearance" page to the notebook.
        page = self.add_page('Appearance')
        notebook.tab('Appearance').focus_set()

        # Create the "Toolbar" contents of the page.
        group = Pmw.Group(page, tag_text = 'Toolbar')
        group.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)
        b1 = Tkinter.Checkbutton(group.interior(), text = 'Show toolbar')
        b1.grid(row = 0, column = 0)
        b2 = Tkinter.Checkbutton(group.interior(), text = 'Toolbar tips')
        b2.grid(row = 0, column = 1)

        # Create the "Startup" contents of the page.
        group = Pmw.Group(page, tag_text = 'Startup')
        group.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)
        home = Pmw.EntryField(group.interior(), labelpos = 'w',
            label_text = 'Home page location:')
        home.pack(fill = 'x', padx = 20, pady = 10)

        # Add two more empty pages.
        page = self.add_page('Helpers')
        page = self.add_page('Images')

        notebook.setnaturalsize()
  
    def add_page(self, pagename):
        page = self.notebook.add(pagename)
        self.notebook.component(pagename+"-tab").bind("<1>",partial(self.showname, pagename))
        return page
        
    def showname(self, name, event):
        print name

######################################################################

# Create demo in root window for testing.
if __name__ == '__main__':
    root = Tkinter.Tk()
    Pmw.initialise(root)
    root.title(title)

    widget = Demo(root)
    exitButton = Tkinter.Button(root, text = 'Exit', command = root.destroy)
    exitButton.pack()
    root.mainloop()

Notice that the callback is called before the tab becomes the current selection.

In fact the code can be simplified a little because the tab is a Button widget, and you can get the name through the button:

title = 'Pmw.NoteBook demonstration'

# Import Pmw from this directory tree.
import sys
#sys.path[:0] = ['../../..']

import Tkinter
import Pmw

class Demo:
    def __init__(self, parent):
	# Create and pack the NoteBook.
        notebook = Pmw.NoteBook(parent)
        self.notebook = notebook # <-- ADDED
        notebook.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)

        # Add the "Appearance" page to the notebook.
        page = self.add_page('Appearance')
        notebook.tab('Appearance').focus_set()

        # Create the "Toolbar" contents of the page.
        group = Pmw.Group(page, tag_text = 'Toolbar')
        group.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)
        b1 = Tkinter.Checkbutton(group.interior(), text = 'Show toolbar')
        b1.grid(row = 0, column = 0)
        b2 = Tkinter.Checkbutton(group.interior(), text = 'Toolbar tips')
        b2.grid(row = 0, column = 1)

        # Create the "Startup" contents of the page.
        group = Pmw.Group(page, tag_text = 'Startup')
        group.pack(fill = 'both', expand = 1, padx = 10, pady = 10)
        home = Pmw.EntryField(group.interior(), labelpos = 'w',
            label_text = 'Home page location:')
        home.pack(fill = 'x', padx = 20, pady = 10)

        # Add two more empty pages.
        page = self.add_page('Helpers')
        page = self.add_page('Images')

        notebook.setnaturalsize()
  
    def add_page(self, pagename):
        page = self.notebook.add(pagename)
        self.notebook.component(pagename+"-tab").bind("<1>", self.showname)
        return page
        
    def showname(self, event):
        print event.widget.cget("text")
