Persist tab after navigation

[Mattias]

Hi,
I have one tabstrip with two tabs, attached to a multipage with two pageviews. In each pageview there is a panelbar. 
It's kind of a product menu, tab 1 is showing product categories in a specified sorted order and the tab 2 is showing them in alphabetic order.
Now:
If I click on tab 2 to see the categories alphabeticly and then click on a category to navigate to that page the tab is reset to the first tab.
How can I persist the tabs to stay on no. 2 (and pageview no. 2)?

   <telerik:RadTabStrip ID="RadTabStrip1"
        runat="server" Skin="Black" SelectedIndex="1"
        MultiPageID="radMultiPageCategories" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False">
        <Tabs>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" PageViewID="radPageViewSorted" Text="Kategorier" Selected="True">
            </telerik:RadTab>
            <telerik:RadTab runat="server" PageViewID="radPageViewAlphabetic" Text="A-Ö">
            </telerik:RadTab>
        </Tabs>
    </telerik:RadTabStrip>

    <telerik:RadMultiPage ID="radMultiPageCategories" runat="server" Width="100%"
        SelectedIndex="0">
        <telerik:RadPageView runat="server" ID="radPageViewSorted">
            <telerik:RadPanelBar ID="radPanelBarSorted" runat="server"
                onitemdatabound="radPanelBarSorted_ItemDataBound" Skin="Default"
                EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Width="100%" PersistStateInCookie="False">
                <CollapseAnimation Type="None" Duration="100"></CollapseAnimation>
                <ExpandAnimation Type="None" Duration="100"></ExpandAnimation>
            </telerik:RadPanelBar>
        </telerik:RadPageView>
        <telerik:RadPageView runat="server" ID="radPageViewAlphabetic">
            <telerik:RadPanelBar ID="radPanelBarAlphabetic" runat="server"
                onitemdatabound="radPanelBarAlphabetic_ItemDataBound" Skin="Default"
                EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Width="100%" PersistStateInCookie="False">
                <CollapseAnimation Type="None" Duration="100"></CollapseAnimation>
                <ExpandAnimation Type="None" Duration="100"></ExpandAnimation>
            </telerik:RadPanelBar>
        </telerik:RadPageView>
    </telerik:RadMultiPage>

Fixed! :)

I just added "&tab=0" and "&tab=1" to the navigate urls in each panelbar. Then I just check the querystring and set the selectedIndex of the tabstrip and multipage.

Hi Mattias,

Please refer to our Site Navigation example that shows the needed approach.

Hi Paul,
No it doesn't! :)
It's just client side events when swithing tabs, no navigation.

But it doesn't matter, it works fine with my solution above.
