AngularJS: Scope in ng-repeat

I am trying to ng-include some partials dynamically. I realize there may be other ways to do this, but I want to understand why this way isn't working.

I have a controller defined as so:

auditApp.controllerModule.controller('LayoutCtrl', ['$scope',
    function (scope) {
        scope.index1={
            pages:[
                'views/subpage1.html',
                'views/subpage2.html',
                'views/subpage3.html',
                'views/subpage4.html'
        ]};
    }
]);

If I execute a static version of my code, everything works fine:

<div ng-controller="LayoutCtrl">
    <div class="row" ng-init="pob={pageidx:0}">
        <div class="span1">
            <ul class="nav nav-tabs nav-stacked">
                <li><a ng-click="pob.pageidx=0">0</a></li>
                <li><a ng-click="pob.pageidx=1">1</a></li>
                <li><a ng-click="pob.pageidx=2">2</a></li>
                <li><a ng-click="pob.pageidx=3">3</a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <div class="span11">
            <ng-include src="index1.pages[pob.pageidx]"></ng-include>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

However, if I try to duplicate this using ng-repeat, it fails silently:

<div ng-controller="LayoutCtrl">
    <div class="row" ng-init="pob={pageidx:0}">
        <div class="span1">
            <ul class="nav nav-tabs nav-stacked">
                <li ng-repeat="n in index1.pages"><a ng-click="pob.pageidx={{$index}}" >{{$index}}</a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <div class="span11">
            <ng-include src="index1.pages[pob.pageidx]"></ng-include>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Again, iterating through an array and just using the $index does not make a whole lot of sense in this example, but it's the underlying scope disconnect that is puzzling me. Can anyone advise me?

ngClick is expecting an Angular Expression. You shouldn't be using interpolation there. It should simply be:

<a ng-click="pob.pageidx=$index">{{$index}}</a>
