hi, I got many tabs inside ajax tab container that cannot be fit into one row. So I would like to create a horizontal scroll tab for ajax tab container to fit all tabs into a single row.

I have tried research online for quite awhile but still couldn't find a solution to it. My ajax tab container and tab panel would be created dynamically in c#.

This is the output that I would like to achieve: (See here: http://i.stack.imgur.com/bUnK4.png[^])
This is my codes:

ASP.NET

//Aspx file
 <div>
             <asp:scriptmanager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
            </asp:scriptmanager>
        </div>
        <asp:updatepanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server" ScrollBars="Horizontal">
            <contenttemplate>
        <asp:placeholder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server"></asp:placeholder>
 
                <asp:Chart runat="server">
 
                </asp:Chart>
 
            </contenttemplate>
        </asp:updatepanel>
 
//Cs file
AjaxControlToolkit.TabContainer container = new AjaxControlToolkit.TabContainer();
            container.ID = "TabContainer";
            container.EnableViewState = false;
            container.Tabs.Clear();
            container.Height = Unit.Pixel(2000);
            container.Width = Unit.Pixel(2000);
            container.Tabs.AddAt(0, GetManualTab());

  AjaxControlToolkit.TabPanel panel = new AjaxControlToolkit.TabPanel();
                    panel.HeaderText += item.Text;
                    container.Tabs.Add(panel);

Solution 2

instead use jquery tabs

https://jqueryui.com/tabs/[^]

it uses div tag for holding tabs. so u can specify a fixed width to div and then set its ovreflow attribute.

hope this helps
