Question

In the Ajax toolkit you can use a Tab Container and add TabPanels to this.

I have some controls that I want to be able to use across all tabs and the tailor the tabs with other controls as neccessary.

My question is how do I reuse a panel on multiple tabs? Essentially I after something like this

<TabContainer> <tabPanel1> <contentTemplate> <pnl1></pnl1> //other controls here  </contentTemplate> </tabPanel1>  <tabPanel2> <contentTemplate> <pnl1></pnl1> //other controls here </contentTemplate> <tabPanel2> </tabContainer>   <pnl1> //some controls here </pnl1> 

Answer 1

Make the panel a user control and then drop the user control in each tab panel.

<TabContainer>   <tabPanel1>     <contentTemplate>       <uc1:MyControl id='myControl' runat='server' />     </contentTemplate>   </tablPanel1>    <tabPanel2>     <contentTemplate>       <uc1:MyControl id='myControl2' runat='server' />     </contentTemplate>   </tablPanel2> </TabContainer>  <uc1:MyControl id='myControl3' runat='server' />
