Two sets of tabs in one page, keep just one activated (SELECTED) after click

Focus here is... the tab that I click needs to be the only one selected, even if there are two sets of tabs on my page (as shown below):
http://codepen.io/mutualdesigns/pen/pbGjbX
NOTE: Once I click in one of the tabs above, and then one below, I have two tabs selected at the same time. If I had a third set of tab, and clicked a link on this third set, I was going to have 3 activated (selected) links...
HOW DO I GET ONLY THE LINK I CLICKED SELECTED (EVEN THOUGH THERE'S ANOTHER SELECTION IN ONE OF THE OTHERS SETS OF TABS)?
<div>
<!-- Nav tabs -->
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">Home</li>
<li role="presentation">Profile</li>
<li role="presentation">Messages</li>
<li role="presentation">Settings</li>
</ul>
<!-- Nav tabs -->
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation">Home</li>
<li role="presentation">Profile</li>
<li role="presentation">Messages</li>
<li role="presentation">Settings</li>
</ul>
<!-- Tab panes -->
<div class="tab-content">
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="1">1</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="2">2</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="3">3</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="4">4</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="5">5</div>

<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="7">7</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="8">8</div>
</div>
</div>

A solution (neither the best, nor the prettiest) is the following. I based it loosely on suggestions given here
<script>
function toggle(clickedElem) {
// Store all active elements in a variable for later use
var elements = document.querySelectorAll(".nav-tabs li.active");
// Iterate over the elements and remove the active class from the classlist. We made sure there was a active class by using the querySelector
for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
elements[i].classList.remove('active');
}
// Add the active class to the parent of the clicked link
clickedElem.parentElement.classList.add("active");
}
</script>
<!-- Nav tabs -->
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">Home</li>
<li role="presentation">Profile</li>
<li role="presentation">Messages</li>
<li role="presentation">Settings</li>
</ul>
<!--not going to be repeating the same code but the rest of your code continues here(add the onclick to the other tags obviously)-->
This could also be done using jQuery. For that you'd be using toggleClass or removeClass/addClass
P.S. emphasized text (template after clicking the I in the editor.

Nested list in Bootstrap tab.js [active class is not removed]

Overview:
I want to make two level navigation of tab-content with one level content. This is my code:
<ul>
<li>
<a data-toggle="tab" href="#main">Main</a>
</li>
<li>
<ul>
<li>
<a data-toggle="tab" href="#nested">Nested</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="main">Main Content</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="nested">Nested Content</div>
</div>
It doesn't work when I do the following steps:
Click Main
Click Nested
Click Main
Details:
Initially everything is ok, code in browser looks like from source.
When I click on Main i works
When I click on Nested active class doesn't removed from first li.
Now can I click whatever and nothing happens.

You can nest your child tabs like so:
<div class="container">
<!-- Nav tabs -->
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">Home</li>
<li role="presentation">Profile</li>
<li role="presentation">Messages</li>
<li role="presentation">Settings</li>
</ul>
<!-- Tab panes -->
<div class="tab-content">
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="home">
Home
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">Nested 1</li>
<li role="presentation">Nested 2</li>
</ul>
<!-- Tab panes -->
<div class="tab-content">
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="nested1">Nested 1</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="nested2">Nested 2</div>
</div>
</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="profile">Profile</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="messages">Messages</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="settings">Settings</div>
</div>
</div>
CODEPEN

I solved this problem myself added the script, that remove any active class:
<script>
(function(){
var menu = document.getElementsByTagName("li")[0];
var list = document.querySelectorAll("li");
menu.addEventListener("click", function() {
[].forEach.call(list, function(item) {
item.classList.remove("active");
});
});
})();
</script>
It is important, that script should be placed before jquery.js and bootstrap.js.

Bootstrap 3 data-target attribute on tab not working

I am using Bootstrap tabs in my website. When page loads tab will be filled with data at run-time using dynamic content. I am using data-target attribute on anchor tag for that, but it does not seems to work at all.
Here is what I tried so far:
HTML
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">
Tab 1
</li>
<li role="presentation">
Tab 2
</li>
<li role="presentation">
Tab 3
</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="test_1"></div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="test_2"></div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="test_3"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here I am trying to load content of remote file showTab1.do inside div with id="test_1" when using data-target="#test_1" on anchor tag. But it is not working. What I know is if I am using data-target we don't need to write any jQuery/JavaScript to load data in tab as data-target will do that for us(correct me if I am wrong).
My Bootstrap version is v3.3.6.
Please correct me where I am wrong.
Thanks

There is no way to automatically load data from another url into the tab content using data attributes. You'd need to fire the jQuery load() method when the show tab event fires...
$('a[data-toggle="tab"]').on('show.bs.tab', function (e) {
...
$(target).load(url,function(result){
...
});
});
Example:
http://codeply.com/go/xZfTnAtKUM

HTML :
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">
Tab 1
</li>
<li role="presentation">
Tab 2
</li>
<li role="presentation">
Tab 3
</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane active" id="test_1"></div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="test_2"></div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="test_3"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
and load the tab content using jQuery load
JAVASCRIPT:
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#test_1').load('showTab1.do');
$('#test_2').load('showTab2.do');
$('#test_3').load('showTab3.do');
});
</script>

There were a couple of errors but this works. I added the Tab 1,2 and 3 to the tab panes so you can see the result when you click the nav links (jsut remove the text so it doesn't mess up your flow)..
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">
<li role="presentation" class="active">Tab 1</li>
<li role="presentation">Tab 2</li>
<li role="presentation">Tab 3</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane fade in active" id="test_1">Tab 1</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane fade" id="test_2">Tab 2</div>
<div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane fade" id="test_3">Tab 3</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Hope this helps - and then load the data into the tab panes using the .load() method as described below.

bootstrap tabs are working but data is not being show?

I am currently working with bootstrap, I want to add a twitter bootstrap tab, I have added jQuery and bootstrap-tabs.js
I have added the following script:
<script>
$('#myTab a').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$(this).tab('show');
});
</script>
and I am using the following code to add the tabs :
<div class="span12" id="stafftabs" style="margin-bottom: 20px;display:none;">
<ul id="myTab" class="nav nav-tabs">
<li class="active">
Home
</li>

please help me guys to go out from this problem ?

Here you have a jsFiddle working without using JS. Easy to codify, simpler and faster.
You only need to use class="tabbable"

loading new page in tabs using twitter bootstrap

Hi I am using the following code to create tabbed layout using twitter bootstrap
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" >
<li class="active">Request Audit</li>
<li>status</li>
<li>Settings</li>
<li>Help</li>
</ul>
now in all tabs i need different page to load.So i want to do this :
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" >
<li class="active">Home</li>
<li>status</li>
<li>Settings</li>
<li>Help</li>
</ul>
I don't want to load the content from same page in all tabs and above code is not loading new page.Please help..
update :
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="myTab">
<li class="active">Request Audit</li>
<li>status</li>
<li>Settings</li>
<li>Help</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="audit">
<p>audit</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="status">
<p>status</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="settings">
<p>settings</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="help">
<p>help</p>
</div>
</div>
I have added this script
<script>
$('#myTab a[href="#status"]').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$(this).tab('show');
$('#status').load('status.html');
});
</script>

There are several ways to do this, but before deciding which one to use, I'd want to make sure you actually want to piece out your files like that. What's keeping you from just putting the content inside of the tabs on the page as it is?
If not, why not use PHP?
If you decide to stick with your current plan, the way I'd accomplish what you're looking to do would be through jQuery and AJAX.
First, you want to make sure you're using the proper Bootstrap structure – check out the Tabbable Nav section, and make your markup tabs correspond to empty content areas:
<div class="tabbable" style="margin-bottom: 18px;">
<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
<li class="active">Request Audit</li>
<li class="">Status</li>
<li class="">Settings</li>
<li class="">Help</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content" style="padding-bottom: 9px; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="tab1">
<p>Placeholder 1</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="tab2">
<p>Placeholder 2</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="tab3">
<p>Placeholder 3</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="tab4">
<p>Placeholder</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>​
Then, use jQuery.load to fill in the tab-panes!
$('#tab2').load('/status.html');
$('#tab3').load('/settings.html');
$('#tab4').load('/help.html');

Just remove the data-toggle="tab"
for example: on the Home Page:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" >
<li class="active"><a href="#" >Home</a></li>
<li><a href="status.html" >status</a></li>
<li><a href="settings.html" >Settings</a></li>
<li><a href="help.html" >Help</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="tab1">
<p>Home Page content 1</p>
</div>
</div>​
On the status.html page:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" >
<li ><a href="#" >Home</a></li>
<li class="active"><a href="status.html" >status</a></li>
<li><a href="settings.html" >Settings</a></li>
<li><a href="help.html" >Help</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-pane active" id="tab1">
<p>status content 1</p>
</div>
</div>​
The bad thing is just have some copy of the nav-tab codes
