RadTabStrip does not show until you click a tab

[Angelo Babudro]

Can anyone explain the following behaviour? I added a RadTabStrip and RadMultiPage control to my page. I set the properties of the tab pages to display the corresposnding multipage views...However when I load the page I see the tabs but nothing displays in the "default" tab...I have to select another one to get the content to appear and then click back on the first one and the content then appears...Very wierd...Here is the code

<telerik:RadTabStrip ID="RadTabStrip1" runat="server" Width="100%"

SelectedIndex="0" Skin="Web20" MultiPageID="RadMultiPage2">

<Tabs>

<telerik:RadTab runat="server" Selected="True" Text="Transaction History"

PageViewID="RadPageView1" ToolTip="Click here to view Transaction history">

</telerik:RadTab>

<telerik:RadTab runat="server" Text="Owner Information"

PageViewID="RadPageView2" ToolTip="Click here to view Owner Information">

</telerik:RadTab>

</Tabs>

</telerik:RadTabStrip>

<telerik:RadMultiPage ID="RadMultiPage2" runat="server">

<telerik:RadPageView ID="RadPageView1" runat="server">

<table>

<tr><td>

<asp:Label ID="Label11" runat="server" Text="One"></asp:Label>

</td></tr>

</table>

</telerik:RadPageView>

<telerik:RadPageView ID="RadPageView2" runat="server">

<table>

<tr><td>

<asp:Label ID="Label14" runat="server" Text="Two"></asp:Label></td></tr>

</table>

</telerik:RadPageView>

</telerik:RadMultiPage>

Hello Ashley Murray,

You should set the SelectedIndex property of the multipage as well.

Thanks for the info...that worked...sorta...When I set the "SelectedIndex" property of theRadMultiPage to 0 and ran the project, it still didn't work. I then noticed the selected property of the individual RadPageViews...I set the first one to true and noticed that the SelectedIndex of the MultiPage stayed at 0 as expected so I tried setting the Selected property of the second page to true..as expected the SelectedIndex of the MultiPage turned to 1...I switched them back so the selected property of the first MultiPageView was true

i ran the project but it still didn't work...I checked the HTML and noticed that the selected property of both PageViews was true even though selecting them in the visual designer showed the first one true and the second one false...when I removed the selected=true attribute for the second RadPageView everything ran as expected...so it appears there is a bug in the tabcontrol/multipage...I am using version 2008.2.723.35 of the controls

Thank you.

Hello Ashley Murray,

Setting more than one pageview as selected is not supported. Usually the last one will be selected. Please use either the SelectedIndex property of the multipage or the Selected property of the pageview.
