Valiodator Callout Extender SetFocus to Tab

[sircutbreaker]

if I have several textboxes in a radmultipage controlled by a radtabstrip...
and there are required fields... and I have the validators set to setfocusonerr...

how can I make the tabstrip go to the tab that contains the textbox with the current validator that is firing off when i press the update/insert button in the user control?

Any help would be appreciated.

even if i can just have a client side routine that places the selected tab back to the first one.. that would suffice..

Hello sircutbreaker,

You can select particular tab by using one of the following RadTab client-side methods - set_selected(), select() or click(). For details on the matter please refer to this help article.

Yes, but how would I have the required field validator fire off the javascript ?

I am using standard asp.net validation controls.

Hi sircutbreaker,

You can use the click() method, i.e.

<form id="form1" runat="server">
    <telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        function test() {
            var tabstrip = $find('<%= RadTabStrip1.ClientID %>')
            tabstrip.get_tabs().getTab(1).click();
        }
    </script>

    <telerik:RadTabStrip ID="RadTabStrip1" runat="server" MultiPageID="RadMultiPage1"
        SelectedIndex="0">
        <Tabs>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" Text="Root RadTab1">
            </telerik:RadTab>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" Text="Root RadTab2">
            </telerik:RadTab>
        </Tabs>
    </telerik:RadTabStrip>
    <telerik:RadMultiPage ID="RadMultiPage1" runat="server" SelectedIndex="0">
        <telerik:RadPageView ID="RadPageView1" runat="server">
            <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
            <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator"
                ControlToValidate="TextBox1"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator></telerik:RadPageView>
        <telerik:RadPageView ID="RadPageView2" runat="server">
            page2
        </telerik:RadPageView>
    </telerik:RadMultiPage>
    <input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" onclick="test()" />
    </form>

All the best,
