Control have been built to generate minimal HTML code, work on the client-side without hassles, be fast and fully support AJAX for on-demand page loading via callbacks.

The TabStrip offers you myriads of options for appearance customization. You can control the look and feel of tabs using multiple mechanisms - from applying an auto-format to the entire control, to customization of individual tabs via its properties or using CSS. Beyond appearance options, you have an extremely flexible means with which to control end-user interaction. Numerous server-side settings, client-side API and events allow you to take full control over how your tab control responds to user actions - which user action activates a tab, should there be a postback, callback or client processing. Note that the most frequently used scenarios are already built-in - like tab form validation or wizard-like interface.
