I hope the staff at MDB can comment on this with some insight. Using the Classic Tabs from https://mdbootstrap.com/components/tabs/ example. The following code will NOT work properly with the value attribute set on the input on pane 3. However if you remove the value attribute completely, all tabs work correctly. Why and how is the value attribute affecting the other tabs?
<form method="post" action="" id="contactadd"> <!-- Nav tabs --> <div class="tabs-wrapper"> <ul class="nav classic-tabs tabs-cyan" role="tablist"> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link waves-light active" data-toggle="tab" href="#panel1" role="tab">Profile</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link waves-light" data-toggle="tab" href="#panel2" role="tab">Follow</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link waves-light" data-toggle="tab" href="#panel3" role="tab">Contact</a> </li> <li class="nav-item"> <a class="nav-link waves-light" data-toggle="tab" href="#panel4" role="tab">Be awesome</a> </li> </ul> </div> <!-- Tab panels --> <div class="tab-content card"> <!--Panel 1--> <div class="tab-pane fade in show active" id="panel1" role="tabpanel"> <div class="md-form"> <input type="text" id="fname" name="firstname" class="form-control"> <label for="fname">First Name</label> </div> </div> <!--/.Panel 1--> <!--Panel 2--> <div class="tab-pane fade" id="panel2" role="tabpanel"> <div class="md-form"> <input type="text" id="lname" name="lastname" class="form-control"> <label for="lname">Last Name</label> </div> </div> <!--/.Panel 2--> <!--Panel 3--> <div class="tab-pane fade" id="panel3" role="tabpanel"> <p>This belongs on Pane 3 - Contact</p> <div class="md-form"> <input type="text" id="street" name="address" class="form-control" value="somevalue"> <label for="street">Street</label> </div> </div> <!--/.Panel 3--> <!--Panel 4--> <div class="tab-pane fade" id="panel4" role="tabpanel"> <p>This belongs on Pane 4 - Be awesome </p> <div class="md-form"> <input type="text" id="citylabel" name="city" class="form-control"> <label for="citylabel">City</label> </div> </div> <!--/.Panel 4--> </div> </form>

Hi,
could you send me the file with your code with this problem to m.szymanska@mdbootstrap.com? I'll try to help you. And if you downloaded MDB package from our website then you have free version and tabs are pro components, so they won't work within free version.
Best,
Marta

In my case the values do not appear on the wrong input, but both tab panes become visible when switching between them. I think you problem lies more in the way of using label for attribute in combination with the right input id. For example. I have an input with id A. Then my label for that input should have for="A". But when you apply this also to another label, your described problem occurs.Neal Creapeau pro commented 7 years ago
I don't have values appearing in the wrong inputs, All inputs have distinct ids that match the appropriate labels. However, if a you set the value attribute on one of those inputs, once the tab pane that holds that input is viewed, it shows up (not only the input but other elements as well) start showing on other tabsFREE CONSULTATION
