    I'm expanding a panelbar based on text from another element, which is easy enough.

    var li = $("#panel").find("span.k-header:contains('" + _txt + "')").closest("li.k-item");
    $("#panel").data("kendoPanelBar").expand(li);

    Now, how do select/open the first child panel under it?

    Hello Clint,


    You could retrieve the underlying items for the current one and again invoke the expand (or select) method.
    E.g.
    va pb = $("#panel").data("kendoPanelBar");
    var li = pb.wrapper.find("span.k-header:contains('" + _txt + "')").closest("li.k-item");
    var subitem = li.find(">.k-group>.k-item:first");
    pb.expand(li);
    pb.select(subitem);

    Have a great day!

    Excellent!  Thanks.  I just couldn't quite get the syntax right.  I know it's not directly a kendoui question, more of a jquery question, but I appreciate the assistance!
