Item Template in CodeBehind

[Paul]

Hi,

I have been scratching my head trying to create an item template in the code behind for the tab strip.  I am trying to create a tab with text and close icon (linking to a javascript function) just like the itemtemplate example on the asp demo site.

Is it possable to do this in the codebehind?

Thanks

Hello Paul,

Here is the code that I tried for creating Tab (with text and close icon) dynamically. Give a try with this.

CS:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadTab tab1 = new RadTab("Tab1"); // Create new tab
    RadTab tab2 = new RadTab("Tab2"); // Create new tab

    RadTabStrip1.Tabs.Add(tab1);
    RadTabStrip1.Tabs.Add(tab2);
}
protected void RadTabStrip1_TabCreated(object sender, RadTabStripEventArgs e)
{
    HtmlImage img1 = new HtmlImage();
    img1.Src = "~/Images/AddRecord.gif";
    Label lbl = new Label();
    lbl.Text = e.Tab.Text;
    img1.Attributes.Add("onclick", "deleteTab('"+e.Tab.Text+"');"); // Add onclick attribute
    e.Tab.Controls.Add(lbl);
    e.Tab.Controls.Add(img1);
}

JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
function deleteTab(tabText)
{
    var tabStrip = $find("<%= RadTabStrip1.ClientID %>");
    var multiPage = $find("<%= RadMultiPage1.ClientID %>");
    var tab = tabStrip.findTabByText(tabText);
    var pageView = tab.get_pageView();

    var tabToSelect = tab.get_nextTab();
    if (!tabToSelect)
        tabToSelect = tab.get_previousTab();

    tabStrip.get_tabs().remove(tab);
    multiPage.get_pageViews().remove(pageView);

    if (tabToSelect)
        tabToSelect.set_selected(true);
}
</script>

ASPX:

<telerik:RadTabStrip ID="RadTabStrip1" runat="server" MultiPageID="RadMultiPage1" OnTabCreated="RadTabStrip1_TabCreated">
</telerik:RadTabStrip>

<telerik:RadMultiPage runat="server" ID="RadMultiPage1" SelectedIndex="0" Height="240px" Width="396px" CssClass="multiPage">
    . . .
</telerik:RadMultiPage>

Thanks,
Princy.
