clientside - select tab w/o firing OnClientTabSelected

[bozojoe]

I need to programmatically change the selected tab without causing the OnClientTabSelected event to fire.  Using both tab.select(); and tab.set_selected(true); is firing my event.

Hi bozojoe,

Please find below a sample code snippet that shows the needed approach.

<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.remove_tabSelected(OnClientTabSelected);
            tabstrip.get_tabs().getTab(1).select();
            tabstrip.add_tabSelected(OnClientTabSelected);
        }

        function OnClientTabSelected(sender, args) {
            alert("1")
        }
    </script>

    <telerik:RadTabStrip ID="RadTabStrip1" runat="server" OnClientTabSelected="OnClientTabSelected">
        <Tabs>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" Text="Signature and Bio">
            </telerik:RadTab>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" Text="Email">
            </telerik:RadTab>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" Text="Controls">
            </telerik:RadTab>
        </Tabs>
    </telerik:RadTabStrip>
    <input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" onclick="test()" />
    </form>

What can I do if I do not have the name or the event callback function?

Is there a way to query the tabstrip to retrieve the function name?
