First, don't echo when calling captureStart(), as that method returns a
boolean. Only the captureEnd() directive should be echoed (or captured
in a variable). You do it correctly later:

> <? $this->tabContainer()->captureStart('news_views', array('class' =>

This one is correct.

> <?= $this->render('index/_most.phtml') ?>
> <?= $this->tabContainer()->captureEnd('news_views') ?>
> <?= $this->contentPane()->captureEnd('news') ?>

So far, looking fine...

But this one is not; don't echo the captureStart() directive. This may
very well be what's causing the issue.

Same comment here about not echoing the captureStart() directive.
