RadTabStrip and Javascript

[John]

I have copied part of the online tabstrip/javascript demo located at http://www.telerik.com/demos/aspnet/TabStrip/Examples/Programming/ClientSideAPI/DefaultCS.aspx but I am not getting the results I expect when I run the project.

If I try the original tab assignation in the example:

        function tabClicked() {
            var currentTab = <%= RadTabStrip1.ClientID %>.SelectedTab;
            var message = currentTab.Text;
            alert(message);
        }

I get the error - 'Text' is null or not an object at the "var message = " assignation line.

I also notice that the Visual Studio 2008 IDE indicates "Expected expression" when I hover over the "<" of  <%= RadTabStrip1...

Is there some vital step that I have missed or some fundamental error/assumption that I've made?

TIA,
John.

Hello John,

I think you're using RadTabStrip for ASP.NET AJAX, but you are looking at the examples for RadTabStrip for ASP.NET "Classic". I suggest you take a look at the following examples for RadTabStrip for ASP.NET AJAX:

• Add / Remove / Disable
• Client-Side API

All the best,

That was exactly my mistake - many thanks Paul.
