Jquery UI implementation [closed]

Question

I have to register the jQuery UI in function file. I don't want it directly in header.php

function my_jquery_ui() {
// register your script location, dependencies and version
wp_register_script('jquery-ui-1.8.16', get_template_directory_uri().'/js/jquery-ui-1.8.16.js', array('jquery'), '1.8.16');
// enqueue the script
wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-1.8.16');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_jquery_ui');

According to firebug, the jQuery plugin is registered

Answer 1

Have you tried enqueuing jquery ui tabs as well?

wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery-ui-tabs' );

Then setting the element in your main javascript file?

jQuery('#tabs').tabs();
