# jQuery tabs

 * I have the latest version of WordPress installed and am trying to get a simple
   jQuery tab system set up in a Page, to no avail. I’ve essentially taken the code
   from [here](http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/) and put it into my Page, as well
   as the header.php file.
 * Currently, I have the body code copied over word for word, with WPs automatic
   loading of jQuery. I’ve tried a lot of things, but haven’t been able to get it
   working. I read through [this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/jquery-ui-tabs-and-wp_enqueue_script?replies=5)
   but haven’t been able to come up with any definite answers there, either.
 * So, I have:
 *     ```
       <?php wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-core'); ?>
       <?php wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-tabs'); ?>
   
       <?php wp_head(); ?>
   
       <script type="text/javascript">
       jQuery(document).ready(function($){
       $(".tabs").tabs();
       });
       </script>
       ```
   
 * With the following in the body:
 *     ```
       <div id="tabs">
           <ul>
               <li><a href="#fragment-1"><span>1</span></a></li>
               <li><a href="#fragment-2"><span>2</span></a></li>
               <li><a href="#fragment-3"><span>3</span></a></li>
           </ul>
           <div id="fragment-1">
               1
               <div>If you can see this it works with DIVS</div>
           </div>
           <div id="fragment-2">
               2
           </div>
           <div id="fragment-3">
               3
           </div>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * I’ve tried subtle variations of everything, but nothin’! What am I doing wrong?
 * Thanks for any help!
