Hello All!

Has anybody out there attempted to modify the TabStrip to take a CSSClass for the various attributes of the tabitems instead of CSSText. ex: tabHoverStyle, tabDefaultStyle, tabSelectedStyle...

Instead creating new CSSText every time I create a tab strip I would like to specify a css class. Naturally, this way if I decide to change a style it is only in the CSS file that I make the change!

I have modified the HTC method f_CreateStyleString() to set the class attribute instead of returning CSSText, (hard-coded for now). When i debug the JS everything looks good, my attibute is set correctly in the <TD> tag but no styles are getting applied. It looks like I cannot set the class here...

-This is problably a reason MS decided not to implement this way! :)

If anyone has any insight(css classes cannot be set in HTCs??) or has tried this before please reply. Thanks!!

Dan

I'm having the same problem! Let me know if you find out the answer to this.

What wouldn’t you do for a Klondike bar?

It looks like this can't be done. What's weird is that I modified the htc file to allow css class definitions and apply them to the TD DOM node for the tab, and the results still don't work.

I used a message box to print out the HTML and the HTML looks fine. In fact, when I copy the HTML it displays into another HTML page and look at the page, it displays the CSS correctly. But when I run the control with the behavior, my css class has no effect. I'm stumped.
