[Solved] RadTabStrip

[Dev]

Hi,
I have a rad strip defined on my aspx page as follows,

<telerik:RadTabStrip ID="radTabStripSamples" runat="server" OnTabClick="radStripHardwareBrowser_Click"/>

I am generating the tabs for the above tabstrip using C# code as follows

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
            List<Category> lstCategories = new List<Category>();
            lstCategories = Service.GetCategories();
            int numberOfCategories = lstCategories.Count;
            CreateTabs(numberOfCategories, lstCategories);
        }
    }

protected void CreateTabs(int numberOfCategories, List<Category> lstCategories)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < numberOfCategories; i++)
        {
            RadTab tab = new RadTab(lstCategories[i].Name);
            radTabStripSamples.Tabs.Add(tab);
        }
    }

now i would like to add template to each of those rad tabs as in static code say for example 

<telerik:RadTabStrip ID="radTabStripSamples" runat="server" OnTabClick="radStripHardwareBrowser_Click">

<Tabs>

        <telerik:RadTab Text="Sample1" runat="server">

        <TabTemplate>

            <table>

  //would like to generate this table inside the tab template of the individual tab from cs code //

           </table>

        </TabTemplate>

        </telerik:RadTab>

</Tabs>
</telerik:RadTabStrip



from C# code, after adding the tabs dynamically.So,I tried something like this 

RadTemplateItem template = new RadTemplateItem();

tab.TabTemplate = template.InstantiateIn(tab);//-----> //this would nt work for sure because the return type is void. So would like to know how to go about this.

 tab.TabTemplate =  template;//--->//This one did not work the way i expected it to// this simply replaced the tab name with "XyZ serires" instead of the categories names.

class RadTemplateItem : ITemplate

{

    public void InstantiateIn(Control container)

    {

        Table tbl = new Table();

        TableRow row = new TableRow();

        TableCell cell = new TableCell();

        Label Name = new Label();

        Name.Text = "XYZ Series";

        cell.Text = Name.Text;

        row.Cells.Add(cell);

        tbl.Rows.Add(row);

        container.Controls.Add(tbl);

    }

 

}

I do not know whether am using the right approach.Would like to see a sample to do the same or any documentation. Thanks you for your help
