I found the culprit! The links were in a list with the bootstrap classes "nav nav-tabs". Because of that the bootstrap js was trying to use the link url to show a tab, but it was the wrong format. The implementation of bootstrap tabs must have changed between versions 2 and 3 enough that my ajax links could work before but now choked the bootstrap js.
Maybe this is something we should keep in mind as people migrate from bootstrap 2 to 3. Anyway, thanks for your willingness to help Niphlod. On Wednesday, July 9, 2014 5:57:39 PM UTC-4, Ian W.
