How to build simple tabs with jQuery?

I have the following code: fiddle

Which works great in websites I create my self and with no JS the tabs act as jump links to the relevant sections. When placed in the bespoke CMS I am forced to use at the moment the jump links don't work. I have tried adding more relative links to the tabs which makes it work with no JS but with JS the tabbed content doesn't show.

Am I missing something?

html:

<ul> <li><a href="#tab1">test1</a></li> <li><a href="#tab2">test2</a></li> <li><a href="#tab3">test3</a></li> <li><a href="#tab4">test4</a></li>
</ul> <div>Some content</div> <div>Some content</div> <div>Some content</div> <div>Some content</div>

jQuery:

$('#tabs li a:not(:first)').addClass('inactive');
$('.container').hide();
$('.container:first').show();
$('#tabs li a').click(function(){ var t = $(this).attr('href'); $('#tabs li a').addClass('inactive'); $(this).removeClass('inactive'); $('.container').hide(); $(t).fadeIn('slow'); return false;
})
if($(this).hasClass('inactive')){ //this is the start of our condition $('#tabs li a').addClass('inactive'); $(this).removeClass('inactive'); $('.container').hide(); $(t).fadeIn('slow');
}

I am guessing your website is having problems with href, i presume that when user clicks a href, website automatically eradicating itself.

Here is new solution's jsFiddle.

I have a new solution for you:

updated jQuery:

$('#tabs li a').click(function(){ var t = $(this).attr('id'); if($(this).hasClass('inactive')){ //this is the start of our condition $('#tabs li a').addClass('inactive'); $(this).removeClass('inactive'); $('.container').hide(); $('#'+ t + 'C').fadeIn('slow'); }
});

new html markup:

<ul> <li><a>test1</a></li> <li><a>test2</a></li> <li><a>test3</a></li> <li><a>test4</a></li>
</ul>
<div>1Some content</div>
<div>2Some content</div>
<div>3Some content</div>
<div>4Some content</div>

$(document).ready(function() {
$("#content div").hide(); // Initially hide all content
$("#tabs li:first").attr("id","current"); // Activate first tab
$("#content div:first").fadeIn(); // Show first tab content
$('#tabs li a').click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); if ($(this).attr("id") == "current"){ //detection for current tab return } else{ $("#content div").hide(); //Hide all content $("#tabs li").attr("id",""); //Reset id's $(this).parent().attr("id","current"); // Activate this $( $(this).attr('href')).fadeIn(); // Show content for current tab }
});

});

Solution JSFiddle::

Implementing Tabs is really simple, I have modified the HTML for your question a bit. Removed the anchor tags coz they are not needed.

HTML

<ul> <li tabindex="0"> Tab 1 </li> <li tabindex="0"> Tab 2 </li> <li tabindex="0"> Tab 3 </li> <li tabindex="0"> Tab 4 </li>
</ul>
<div> <div> Some content for Tab - 1 </div> <div> Some content for Tab - 2 </div> <div> Some content for Tab - 3 </div> <div> Some content for Tab - 4 </div>
</div>

HTML De-Mystified

Add the "tab-switcher" class to each "li" element as well as tabindex="0" to make it accessible.
Give a "data-tab-index" attribute to each "li".
Add the "tab-container" class to each Tabbed Container. Also provide a "data-tab-index" attribute to each container which corresponds to the "data-tab-index" attribute on the "li" element.
Show only the container you want visible, hide the others using "display:none".
Provide a parent container for all the content of the tabbed containers. In this example this is the "allTabsContainer" div.

jQuery

$(document).ready(function () { var previousActiveTabIndex = 0; $(".tab-switcher").on('click keypress', function (event) { // event.which === 13 means the "Enter" key is pressed if ((event.type === "keypress" && event.which === 13) || event.type === "click") { var tabClicked = $(this).data("tab-index"); if(tabClicked != previousActiveTabIndex) { $("#allTabsContainer .tab-container").each(function () { if($(this).data("tab-index") == tabClicked) { $(".tab-container").hide(); $(this).show(); previousActiveTabIndex = $(this).data("tab-index"); return; } }); } } });
});

jQuery De-Mystified

The click and keypress listener on the "tab-switcher" gets initialized on "document.ready". (Note: The keypress only registers the "Enter" key)
The variable "previousActiveTabIndex" keeps a track of the previous active tab so that if we press on the same tab again and again, it can be ignored.
We run an EACH loop on the "tab-container". This is done to know which tab should be displayed. If the "data-tab-index" data attribute on each matches, we display that tab.
We keep the value of the "data-tab-index" saved in "previousActiveTabIndex" which helps us keep a track of the previous tab which was clicked.

Include jquery:

CSS:

.gtabs { position: relative; .gtab { background: #eee; position: absolute; width: 100%; opacity: 0; visibility: hidden; padding: 10px; top: 5px; transition: all 0.4s; &.active { opacity: 1; visibility: visible; top: 0; transition: all 0.4s; } }
}

JS:

$("[data-toggle='tab']").click(function () { var tabs = $(this).attr('data-tabs'); var tab = $(this).attr("data-tab"); $(tabs).find(".gtab").removeClass("active"); $(tabs).find(tab).addClass("active");
});

Demo:

 <script> $('.tabheading li').click(function () { var tabid = $(this).attr("rel"); $(this).parents('.tabcontainer').find('.active').removeClass('active'); $('.tabbody').hide(); $('#' + tabid).show(); $(this).addClass('active'); return false; });
</script>
