I want to display next bootstrap tabs one by one on button click.Right now on button click only the second tab is displayed as i have hard coded it what should be in place of the href="#second" how to get the particular id in the href?When I first click on other tabs instead of clicking on the first tab which is active then the user must get the error message that ' the user have to click the first tab and then the other tabs' using noty plugin means disable the other tabs except for the first tab on page load .
here is my code
