tabs showing div elements that build tabs

Hello,

I must be doing soemthing wrong. Ive built my tabs but it's also showing the div/li elements in the html

 $( "#tabs" ).tabs();

It's showing this in the html. I tried using display:none but then it doesnt build the tabs

<div id="tabs" >                                  
  <ul>                                                                 
  <li><a href="#" class="program" id="paos01r.pgm">Member Management</a></li>
  <li><a href="#" class="program" id="paos02i.pgm">User Management</a> </li>
  <li><a href="#" class="program" id="paos03i.pgm">Nanda Management</a> </li>
  </ul>                                                                
 </div>
