Hi,

Please have a look at the following sample code I tried to access to access the RadTabStrip in JavaScript and add a RadTab from client side.

JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function AddTab(sender, args) {
        var tabStrip = $find("<%= RadTabStrip1.ClientID %>");
        var tab = new Telerik.Web.UI.RadTab();
        tab.set_text("New Tab");
        tabStrip.trackChanges();
        tabStrip.get_tabs().add(tab);
        tabStrip.commitChanges();
    }
</script>

Thanks,
Princy.
