Why Are My jQuery Tabs Not Working Properly in My CMS?

How to Build Simple Tabs with jQuery

Problem: You've implemented tabs on your website using jQuery, but they're not working properly within a bespoke CMS. Without JavaScript, the tabs act as jump links, but with it, the tabbed content doesn't show.

Provided Input:

• HTML code for the tabs:

  <code class="html"><ul id="tabs">
  <li><a href="#tab1">test1</a></li>
  <li><a href="#tab2">test2</a></li>
  ...
  </ul>
  ...
  <div class="container" id="tab1">Some content</div>
  ...</code>

• jQuery code:

  <code class="javascript">$('#tabs li a:not(:first)').addClass('inactive');
  $('.container').hide();
  $('.container:first').show();
  ...</code>

Modified Solution:

The provided solution assumes that clicking a tab's href reloads the website. To resolve this, the href attributes have been removed, and the click handler is revised:

Updated jQuery:

<code class="javascript">$('#tabs li a').click(function() {
  var t = $(this).attr('id');

  if ($(this).hasClass('inactive')) { // Start of the condition
    $('#tabs li a').addClass('inactive');
    $(this).removeClass('inactive');

    $('.container').hide();
    $('#' + t + 'C').fadeIn('slow');
  }
});</code>

Revised HTML Markup:

<code class="html"><ul id="tabs">
  <li><a id="tab1">test1</a></li>
  <li><a id="tab2">test2</a></li>
  ...
</ul>
...
<div class="container" id="tab1C">1Some content</div>
...</code>

With these changes, whether you click the tabs with or without JavaScript enabled, the website will handle the navigation correctly.
