As topic - nothing is displayed.
The source is there, but the whole wrapper
<div id="tabs-tabset" class="drupal-tabs js-hide">
is hidden by the
html.js .js-hide { display: none; }
in system.css, according to Firebug.

I'm using these modules
Fieldgroup 6.x-2.7
jQuery UI 6.x-1.3 (jQuery UI 1.8.2)
Tabs 6.x-1.3
jQuery plugins 6.x-1.10
jQuery Update 6.x-2.0-alpha1 (jQuery 1.3.2)

with Drupal 6.17

As a side note, it did not work without jQuery Update or with jQuery Update 6.x-1.1 either.

I was having the same problem using:
Drupal 6.19
Fieldgroup 6.x-2.8
jQuery UI 6.x-1.4
Tabs 6.x-1.3
(without jQuery plugins or jQuery Update)

I solved the problem in my case by putting the jquery.ui-1.6 js files in the right place within the jquery_ui module directory. See the README.txt for the jQuery UI module. (I thought I had followed these instructions when I installed the module but apparently not correctly.)

The jQuery UI module is placed as usual in sites/all/modules/jquery_ui. Then download the jQuery UI 1.6 release from http://code.google.com/p/jquery-ui/downloads/list?q=1.6. Unzip the file and rename the jquery.ui-1.6 folder to jquery.ui and drop that in sites/all/modules/jquery_ui so that you have a bunch of js files in /sites/all/modules/jquery_ui/jquery.ui/ui/*.js

Of course, you may have done this already and yours may be a different issue altogether.

Hi oskarg,

Have you got the solution? I am also facing same issue.

Even i have followed installation details as mentioned by sheilaj. No luck.

I am having what i think is a related issue. I can see my tabs but they do not act like tabs. I have a list of fieldgroups across the top of my page - then my content all listed. Nothing is being hidden by the tabs. It almost as though the css is not loading. No errors in web dev error log at all?

my config:
Drupal 6.19
CCK (content) 6.x-3.x-dev
Tabs 6.x-1.3
CCK Fieldgroup Tabs 6.x-1.2
Fieldgroup 6.x-3.x-dev

jquery 1.3.2
jquery ui 1.7

The stable release of tabs does not work with jquery ui 1.7. Pls try the dev release.

Nedjo,
Thanks. I am betting that was in the READ ME or some where. Thank you for the heads up.

Moving from jquery.ui-1.7 back to jquery.ui-1.6 solved the mystery of the disappearing tabs for me.

From the JQuery UI README.txt:

"The jQuery UI module uses jQuery UI 1.6 because jQuery UI 1.7 requires at least jQuery 1.3, which is not shipped with Drupal 6."

Luckily, I had saved off the 1.6 tree prior to my unwitting 1.7 upgrade. A quick folder rename brought us back to where we needed to be.

$ cd (DRUPALROOT)/sites/all/modules/jquery_ui
$ mv jquery.ui jquery.ui-1.7.3 && mv jquery.ui-1.6 jquery.ui

A simple form page refresh reveals the tabs.

This is freaky!

Title: Tabs and content hidden » Tabs and content hidden with jQuery UI 1.7 and above
Status: Active » Fixed

After experimenting, I'm fairly certain this is the combination of modules that is needed if jQuery UI 1.7 is used:

Tabs 6.x-1.x-dev (2010-Jul-11)
CCK Fieldgroup Tabs 6.x-1.x-dev (2010-Jul-11)
jQuery UI 6.x-1.4 => with jQuery UI 1.7.3
JQuery Update 6.x-2.0-alpha1 (2010-Apr-23) => jQuery 1.3.2

This comment leads me to believe this will work with jQueryUI 1.8 as well.

Worked for me!
Just be sure and actually have the ui-tabs.css in in there :)
