How to open specific tab of bootstrap nav tabs on click of a particuler link using jQuery?

Applying a selector from the .nav-tabs seems to be working

HTML is

<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
    <li><a href="#aaa" data-toggle="tab">AAA</a></li>
    <li><a href="#bbb" data-toggle="tab">BBB</a></li>
    <li><a href="#ccc" data-toggle="tab">CCC</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content" id="tabs">
    <div class="tab-pane" id="aaa">...Content...</div>
    <div class="tab-pane" id="bbb">...Content...</div>
    <div class="tab-pane" id="ccc">...Content...</div>
</div>

Script is

$(document).ready(function(){
  activaTab('aaa');
});

function activaTab(tab){
  $('.nav-tabs a[href="#' + tab + '"]').tab('show');
};

HTML:

<a href="PageName.php#tabID">link to other page tab</a>

Javascript:

window.onload = function(){  

    var url = document.location.toString();
    if (url.match('#')) {
        $('.nav-tabs a[href="#' + url.split('#')[1] + '"]').tab('show');
    }

    //Change hash for page-reload
    $('.nav-tabs a[href="#' + url.split('#')[1] + '"]').on('shown', function (e) {
        window.location.hash = e.target.hash;
    }); 
} 

You may access through tab Id as well, But that id is unique for same page. Here is an example for same

$('#product_detail').tab('show');

In above example #product_details is nav tab id
