    I have a simple project where I have a TreeView in a TabStrip.  On expending node of the treeview, I add a node with the selected tab as the value.  But even if I click on a tab, on the server, the SelectedTab is always the first.

    Here's my code :
    Repro.aspx

            treeFolders.LoadXmlString(test)  
     
        End Sub  
     
    End Class  
     
     

    To repro:
     - Select the Quebec tab. 
     - Expand a node
     - Should add a node Quebec

    This repros on Q3sp1 and 2010 Q1 beta.

    UPDATE: This works fine if AutoPostBack is set to true for the tabStrip, but that's not what I want

    Am I doing something wrong?

    Hello Christian,

    The problem is that when you're using ServerSideCallBack ExpandMode of the nodes, actually an asynchronous request is sent to the server, but at this time the selected tab is not updated on the server yet.
    One solution is to use ServerSide ExpandMode instead.  The other way is to subscribe to OnClientNodePopulating event of the treeview and set the text of the selected tab as a custom attribute of the expanding node:

    <script type="text/javascript">
      function nodePopulating(sender, args) {
          var node = args.get_node();
          sender.trackChanges();
          node.get_attributes().setAttribute("selTab", $find("<%=tabStrip.ClientID %>").get_selectedTab().get_text());
          sender.commitChanges();
      }
    </script>

    and then receive it in NodeExpand event handler like this:

    Protected Sub treeFolders_NodeExpand(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RadTreeNodeEventArgs)
           e.Node.Nodes.Add(New RadTreeNode(e.Node.Attributes("selTab")))
    End Sub

    I've also attached the modified page for a reference.
