There's no need for all this ranting. You're simply not meeting the markup requirements to make the tabs work.
A tab has to look like: <li><a href="#fragment-identifier"><span>A Tab</span></a></li> I m pretty sure the documentation is showing this fact and I don't understand why you took "straight code out of the example" and then changed it to not work. Indeed "Nowhere in the docs does it say you need to add code to show the first default tab and div." because you don't need to as long as you're using the proper markup. --Klaus On 3 Apr., 07:32, expresso <dschin...@gmail.com> wrote: > I mean really if you take the straight code out of the example and try to run > this, it doesn't even work!
