[Solved] How to access controls inside a TabTemplate

[smith spd]

Hello,

Can somebody tell me how do I access an image (html control) inside the TabTemplate from the Server Side?

Thanks

Hello Smith,


You need to get reference to corresponding TabStrip and use the FindControl() method to access the control placed inside it.

C#:

RadTab tab = (RadTab)RadTabStrip1.FindTabByText("TabText"); // Get the tab
HtmlImage image1 = (HtmlImage)tab.FindControl("Image1"); // Image1 is Id of HTML image in TabTemplate
image1.Visible = false;

And the relevant aspx is:

<telerik:RadTab runat="server" Selected="True" Text="test">
    <TabTemplate>
        <img alt="click me to edit" runat="server" id="Image1" src="../Images/Edit.gif" />
    </TabTemplate>
</telerik:RadTab>

[Addrunat="server" to image control access the from code behind]

Thank you shinu.
I m closing tabs using javascript in the above ref.
But, if I want to close the dynamically created tabs. This javascript doesn't work.
Can you let me know how to achieve this?
I have small snippet to close the tabs dynamically but I have that not working properly.

Protected Sub ImgBtn_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim currentTab As RadTab = tabContainer.InnermostSelectedTab

        If currentTab IsNot Nothing Then
            Dim owner As IRadTabContainer = currentTab.Owner
            tabMultiPage.PageViews.RemoveAt(tabMultiPage.SelectedIndex)
            owner.Tabs.Remove(currentTab)
            If owner.Tabs.Count > 0 Then
                owner.SelectedIndex = 0
            End If
        End If

    End Sub

Please help.
Would be of great help if you can resolve one of my issues here
