If you are on home of a theme (e.g. bartik) you can see an empty <div class="tabs"></div> in the code. This also adds a gab

.tabs {
  font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
  margin-bottom: 20px;
}

in page.tpl.php the $tabs variable always evals to true:

      <?php if ($tabs): ?>
        <div class="tabs">
          <?php print render($tabs); ?>
        </div>
      <?php endif; ?>

the reason for the TRUE is inside template_preprocess_page(&$variables) where menu_local_tabs(); is called and always returns an array with 3 keys.

$variables['tabs'] = menu_local_tabs();

Title: Empty tabs <div> rendered on home, <?php if ($tabs): ?> is always TRUE » Empty tabs <div> rendered, but <?php if ($tabs): ?> is always TRUE

Not only on home. Also in views and other places if the tabs are empty.

Many similar issues, some of them get fixed or duplicated or ... closed for some reason:

as a workaround:

<?php if ($tabs = render($tabs)): ?>
    <div class="tabs">
    <?php print render($tabs); ?>
    </div>
<?php endif; ?>
