Tabstrip WebControl Question

[Patrick.O.Ige]

I'm planning to use TABSTRIP as my Navigation menu for a HR Sysytem.
As anybody used something similar and how did it go ? Any limitations etc..?
Or a proposed MENU for a HR system?
Advices are welcomes
Thanks

Patrick,

Although I do not have an extensive knowledge of the TabStrip control,
I have used it in a few applications and find its use quite nice.
I'm assuming you would be using it in conjunction with the multipage
control, which goes hand in hand. I'm sure there are several uses
for the control, however, using it with the multipage has been my only
experience.

If you decide not to go the tab route, but rather a different menu
route, I'd suggest taking a look at the following third party control
(free):

Hope this helps,
Aaron

Thx Aaron for the advice.And for sure i'll be using it in conjunction
with Multipage.When you used it with Multipage did you use
frames/iframes with it?I know about the http://skmmenu.com/menu/ and i
really like the Roles menu stuff which i believe is handy.
The thing is since it would be a HR system and lets say there are tabs
on the top Menu what i am thinking of doing is to have list of employees
on the left and when selected populate the data in the Tabstrip
multipage.
Will such scenario work using it?

Patrick,

I do believe that the Tabstrip will offer such functionality. I really
enjoy the look and feel of the tabs and users really seem to love them
as well.

Keep us informed of your progress and I will try to offer any advice
that I can in the future. Again, I have only used the tabstrip /
multipage in a few smaller applications, so I haven't really unlocked
its full potential.
