This example shows how to configure the Telerik TabStrip for ASP.NET MVC to use sprites.

Use SpriteCssClasses method to set the css class name. The tabstrip will render <span> tag with provided css class before item's text:

    <%= Html.Telerik().TabStrip()
            .Name("TabStrip")
            .Items(tabstrip =>
            {
                tabstrip.Add()
                        .Text("Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC")
                        .SpriteCssClasses("icon-mvc")
                        .Items(parent =>
                        {
                                parent.Add().Text("Grid")
                                      .SpriteCssClasses("icon-mvc-grid");
                                ...
                        }
            ...
            });
    %>
