  We are using Tabstrip with user controls inside each tab. We have a requirement to client-side disable tabstrip on click of a button from inside the last tab (user control).
  This is to prevent the user from clicking any tabs once Submit button is clicked.
  Our Submit action takes around 15 secs.

  We wrote following code, but it just grays out the tab strip. The user is still able to click on tabs and it takes them to the tab after Submit event is finished-

  var tabStrip = document.getElementById('rtsWarranty');
  tabStrip.disabled = true;
  
  Thanks,
  Vimukta

  Hello Vimukta Talwar,
  
  You are disabling only the HTML element and you need to disable the whole TabStrip control. So you can use $find to get the needed reference. Here is a help article that gives some examples:

  I hope this helps.
