i had the same problem until i downloaded bootstrap-tab.js and included it in my script, download from here https://code.google.com/p/fusionleaf/source/browse/webroot/fusionleaf/com/www/inc/bootstrap/js/bootstrap-tab.js?r=82aacd63ee1f7f9a15ead3574fe2c3f45b5c1027

include the bootsrap-tab.js in the just below the jquery

<script type="text/javascript" src="bootstrap/js/bootstrap-tab.js"></script>

Final Code Looked like this:

 <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<link href="bootstrap/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script type="text/javascript" src="libraries/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="bootstrap/js/bootstrap.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="bootstrap/js/bootstrap-tab.js"></script>
</head>

<body>

<div class="container">

<!-------->
<div id="content">
    <ul id="tabs" class="nav nav-tabs" data-tabs="tabs">
        <li class="active"><a href="#red" data-toggle="tab">Red</a></li>
        <li><a href="#orange" data-toggle="tab">Orange</a></li>
        <li><a href="#yellow" data-toggle="tab">Yellow</a></li>
        <li><a href="#green" data-toggle="tab">Green</a></li>
        <li><a href="#blue" data-toggle="tab">Blue</a></li>
    </ul>
    <div id="my-tab-content" class="tab-content">
        <div class="tab-pane active" id="red">
            <h1>Red</h1>
            <p>red red red red red red</p>
        </div>
        <div class="tab-pane" id="orange">
            <h1>Orange</h1>
            <p>orange orange orange orange orange</p>
        </div>
        <div class="tab-pane" id="yellow">
            <h1>Yellow</h1>
            <p>yellow yellow yellow yellow yellow</p>
        </div>
        <div class="tab-pane" id="green">
            <h1>Green</h1>
            <p>green green green green green</p>
        </div>
        <div class="tab-pane" id="blue">
            <h1>Blue</h1>
            <p>blue blue blue blue blue</p>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>


<script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
        $('#tabs').tab();
    });
</script>    
</div> <!-- container -->


<script type="text/javascript" src="bootstrap/js/bootstrap.js"></script>

Actually  there is another easy way to do it  It works for me but I m not sure for you guys  The key thing here  is just adding the FADE in each  tab-pane  and it will works  Besides  you don t even need to script function or whatever version of jQuery  Here is my code   hope it will works for you all    lt div class  tab-pane fade  id  Customer  gt       lt table class  table table-hover table-bordered  gt           lt tr gt               lt th width  40   gt Contact Person lt  th gt               lt td gt  lt  php echo  event  Event    e contact person      gt  lt  td gt           lt  tr gt       lt  table gt   lt  div gt   lt div class  tab-pane fade  id  Delivery  gt       lt table class  table table-hover table-bordered  gt           lt tr gt               lt th width  40   gt Time Arrive Warehouse Start lt  th gt               lt td gt  lt  php echo  event  Event    e time arrive WH start      gt  lt  td gt           lt  tr gt       lt  table gt   lt  div gt

Just copy the script tag for adding the bootstrap js from the head section to the end of the body  Then everything should work fine even without the scripts to activate the tabs
