jQuery TABS is not working under new ASP .NET MVC4 project

What I did is

  1. I have create new ASP .NET MVC4 project.

  2. I have used http://jqueryui.com/tabs/ example code

So I have got this:

_Layout.schtml

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>@ViewBag.Title - My ASP.NET MVC Application</title>
    <link href="~/favicon.ico" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
 @*   @Styles.Render("~/Content/css")
      @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr")*@

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" />
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.1/jquery-ui.js"></script>

    <script>
        $(function () {
            $("#tabs").tabs();
        });
    </script>
</head>

and Index.cshtml

<div id="tabs">

  </div>
</div>
  1. And it is not working at all.

Any help?

Solution

  • If your _Layout.cshtml looks like:

    <body>
    @RenderBody()

    @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
    @RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
</body>

    The problem is the @Scripts.Render(~/bundles/jquery") since you are already including it at the top of the page.

    UPDATE

    A cleaner approach using the tools already included in MVC4 is:

    _Layout.cshtml

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
    <title>@ViewBag.Title</title>
    @Styles.Render("~/Content/css")
    @Styles.Render("~/Content/themes/base/css")
    @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr")

</head>
<body>
    @RenderBody()

    @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
    @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryui")
    @RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
</body>
</html>

    Index.cshtml

    ... Add at the bottom...
@section scripts
{
    <script>
        $(function () {
            $("#tabs").tabs();
        });
    </script>
}

    I found this solution by looking at the App_Start\BundleConfig.cs file. Also, you will probably want to run the NuGet Update-Package in your Package Manager Console so that you get current versions of the jquery stuff.
