Tabs

Create tabbable panes of local content, even via dropdown menus.

Basic example

Dynamic tabbed interfaces, as described in the WAI ARIA Authoring Practices, require role="tablist", role="tab", role="tabpanel", and additional aria- attributes in order to convey their structure, functionality and current state to users of assistive technologies (such as screen readers).

Note that dynamic tabbed interfaces should not contain dropdown menus, as this causes both usability and accessibility issues. From a usability perspective, the fact that the currently displayed tab's trigger element is not immediately visible (as it's inside the closed dropdown menu) can cause confusion. From an accessibility point of view, there is currently no sensible way to map this sort of construct to a standard WAI ARIA pattern, meaning that it cannot be easily made understandable to users of assistive technologies.

We aim high at being focused on building relationships with our clients and community. Using our creative gifts drives this foundation. Working together on the daily requires each individual to let the greater good of the team's work surface above their own ego.

It's important to stay detail oriented with every project we tackle. Staying focused allows us to turn every project we complete into something we love. We strive to embrace and drive change in our industry which allows us to keep our clients relevant and ready to adapt.

As creatives, it's important that we strive to do work outside of obligation. This lets us stay ahead of the curve for our clients and internal projects. At the end of the day, it's important to not let being busy distract us from having fun. Smiling, laughing, and hanging helps us work together to achieve this.

To help fit your needs, this works with <ul>-based markup, as shown above, or with any arbitrary "roll your own" markup. Note that if you're using <nav>, you shouldn't add role="tablist" directly to it, as this would override the element's native role as a navigation landmark. Instead, switch to an alternative element (in the example below, a simple <div>) and wrap the <nav> around it.

            
              <nav>
                <div class="nav nav-tabs" id="nav-tab" role="tablist">
                  <a class="nav-item nav-link active" id="nav-home-tab" data-toggle="tab" href="#nav-home" role="tab" aria-controls="nav-home" aria-selected="true">Home</a>
                  <a class="nav-item nav-link" id="nav-profile-tab" data-toggle="tab" href="#nav-profile" role="tab" aria-controls="nav-profile" aria-selected="false">Profile</a>
                  <a class="nav-item nav-link" id="nav-contact-tab" data-toggle="tab" href="#nav-contact" role="tab" aria-controls="nav-contact" aria-selected="false">Contact</a>

Using data attributes

You can activate a tab or pill navigation without writing any JavaScript by simply specifying data-toggle="tab" or data-toggle="pill" on an element. Use these data attributes on .nav-tabs or .nav-pills.

            
              <!-- Nav tabs -->
