Visibility of ajaxToolkit:TabContainer using css

Question

I use ajaxToolkit:TabContainer to organize page contents. Some times, I need to hide some tabs based on conditions. The problem is, I would like to read the content of hidden tab using JavaScript. So I can not use C#'s Tab.Visible = false because it will not render the tab.

When I use CSS's display:none; or visibility:hidden; , the tab still there (without tab titles). I guess Ajax tab does not support the css properties. What are the alternatives should I use ?

Answer 1

You can use TabContainer1.Tabs[0].Enabled = false; to hide tab, it will still generate the DOM element for this tab and you can access it using javascript.
