I encountered this issue today and when I was about to post the same issue, when I entered my post title, I came across this post.Which in turn led me to the jquery documentation.

Essentially what I did was strip the spaces in the template and it worked fine. I.E:

Before:

<script type="text/ng-template" id="deletePopover.html">
    <div>Sample template.</div>
</script>

After:

<script type="text/ng-template" id="deletePopover.html"><div>Sample template.</div>
</script>

As Angular UI Bootstrap doesn't have a dependency on jQuery, I don't know why this is an issue and as I haven't really looked into why this works, I thought I'd post it in the meantime.

Had the same problem. Resolved changing the order of loading jquery and bootstrap. Now I load bootstrap and then jquery and it seems to solve it. But strange nonetheless.

Just want to point out that it seems that the root of the requirement is that the string must start with a < character. So you don't actually need to stick the whole thing on a single line (which isn't very nice for a more complicated template). The following works for me:

<script type="text/ng-template" id="template.html"><span></span>
    <div>
        Hello there
    </div>
</script>

Having the <span></span> immediately after the opening <script> allows the rest of the template to be rendered as HTML.
