Embedded WebResources in ASP.NET 2.0

As of our Q2 2006 release all resources (scripts, the default skin, etc) are implemented as Embedded WebResources in ASP.NET 2.0 for a very easy and convenient deployment. The only thing you now need to do is drag r.a.d.tabstrip from your toolbox onto your web page (no external files will be required). The /RadControls folder will only be needed if you plan to use a skin other than the default or if you make any modifications to the script files.

1. Semantic rendering for 70% less markup
   
   
   Telerik RadTabStrip now implements a highly efficient semantic rendering, which uses list items and CSS instead of tables. As a result the HTML output is reduced by up to 70%, which dramatically improves performance. Furthermore there is no CPU-freeze effect associated with with client-side generated controls.
2. Search engine friendly
   
   
   Although it is JavaScript-based, Telerik RadTabStrip completely follows the principles of Search Engine Optimization. The control's innovative rendering generates semantic lists and standard <a> tags, which are properly recognized and highly valued by search engines. As a result, all content accessible through this control will be automatically indexed and ranked with no extra effort required on the side of the developer.
3. Convenient Visual Builder
   
   Developers can now build and customize Telerik RadTabStrip in a minute and entirely in design mode, using the new visual builder. It allows you to define the tabstrip structure, apply skins, and set individual item properties.
   
   
   
                                     
   
4. Client API Closely Matches the Server API
   
   
   To enable effortless development of the client-side tabstrip behavior, Telerik RadTabStrip provides a much richer API that almost completely matches the model of the server-side API.
   
5. Consistent set of skins, switchable with a single property
   
   Defining the visual appearance of Telerik RadTabStrip is easier than ever thanks to the simplified skinning mechanism. Instead of setting dozens of property you need to use just one a "Skin". Telerik RadTabStrip is shipped with 29 ready-to-use skins, which can be modified to match your application design.
