Tab Extender question

Anyone know how to show a busy mouse cursor when one of the tabs is clicked on?You mean for the AJAX to use the UpdateProgress? a busy mouse means the user cannot click anything else, pretty annonying on the web. Best practise in AJAX is to show the UpdateProgress. Use the UpdatePanel with the UpdateProgress and you are in business

tab panel with rounded corners extender

how to add rounded extender for a tab panel?

Can it be used with any other control?

Thanx

I've had problems with rounded corners too.. Making stuff disapeer in some applications...

But in any case, my personal opinion on this rounded corners extender... It seems like a lot of code just to get some rounded corners, and prefer the old fashioned way even if it's a bit more work than just saying something like roundcorners= panel_id.. Seems more like a programmers shortcut and not the "optimal" solution to round corners..


As i am asked to use the ajax controls , so i wish to, it is working with panel

but after so much difficulty,

when other extenders are used it again gives problem.

For tab panel i really dont know how to use it?


Using ajax is one thing. Using the toolkit is another thing.

Ajax is about updatepanels and asyncpostbacks. The toolkit is a package with prebuilt controls that use ajax and that can make your life easier.

To use the tabpanels:

you first need a tabcontainer:

<ajaxToolkit:TabContainerrunat="server"ID="tabcontainer1"Width="510">

<ajaxToolkit:TabPanelrunat="server"ID="membersTab"HeaderText="Members">

<ContentTemplate>

[controls]

</ContentTemplate>

</ajaxToolkit:TabPanel>

<ajaxToolkit:TabPanelrunat="server"ID="picturesTab"HeaderText="Pictures">

<ContentTemplate>

<iframerunat="server"id="picturesFrame"name="picturesFrame"

frameborder="0"marginheight="0"marginwidth="0"scrolling="no"

src="Pictures.aspx"width="500"height="500">

</iframe>

</ContentTemplate>

</ajaxToolkit:TabPanel>

</ajaxToolkit:TabContainer>
