from server-side need to switch to a different tab
Reply Quote
I got this working but I think it is a kluge and was wondering if there is a cleaner way.

Requirement: One tab has a grid and one column of the grid has a select button that forms the proper sql command to fetch data from that row that can be seen in the grid in the other tab.

I could not figure out how to to this using PinTab1 or _objPinTab1 or whatever. I did get it to work using this scheme:

The button callback stored the sql command into a session variable and set another session variable "CurrentDefault Tab" equal to the tab that I wanted selected. I then when to the page_load of _default.asp and looked for a non-null CurrrentDefaultTab and if it was defined I then issued:
PinTab1.SelectedIndex = Convert.ToInt32(Session["CurrentDefaultTab"].ToString());

This works but I think it is a hack. Surely there is a way in C# to select one tab while in another?


I put an image of the code segment here:

As shown, clicking on the button 3642 stores that info into the session variable and the callback then arranges for a refresh of the main page which then uses the session info to start the proper tab. There ought to be something in C# that can be written to avoid all this one would think.

Hi,

I'm sorry but I have no overview over your project and pages.

But if you are at server side and want to set a default tab then this seems not a bad solution for me.

Regards,
Hans-Peter
