This article explains us how to give own css style for Ajax TabContainer Control. 

1. Create new ASP.NET AjaxEnabled Website. 

2. Drag and Drop TabContainer Control from Toolkit to web form. 

3. Drag and Drop TabPanel Control from Toolkit to TabContainer.And Drop Label, Textbox and Button Controls to TabPanels, like this 

Sample code :


<cc1:TabContainer ID="TabContainer1" runat="server" ActiveTabIndex="0">
<cc1:TabPanel ID="TabPanel1" runat="server" HeaderText="Tab 1">
        <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>                          
        </ContentTemplate>
 </cc1:TabPanel>
 <cc1:TabPanel ID="TabPanel2" runat="server" HeaderText="Tab 2">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
            </ContentTemplate>
</cc1:TabPanel>
<cc1:TabPanel ID="TabPanel3" runat="server" HeaderText="Tab 3">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button1" />
            </ContentTemplate>
</cc1:TabPanel>
</cc1:TabContainer>

4. Now create a new Style Sheet with the following css code. 

/*Header*/
.Tab .ajax__tab_header
{
    color: #4682b4;
    font-family:Calibri;
    font-size: 14px;
    font-weight: bold;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    margin-left: 0px;
}
/*Body*/
.Tab .ajax__tab_body
{
    border:1px solid #b4cbdf;
    padding-top:0px;
}
/*Tab Active*/
.Tab .ajax__tab_active .ajax__tab_tab
{
    color: #ffffff;
    background:url("../../tab_active.gif") repeat-x;
    height:20px;
}
.Tab .ajax__tab_active .ajax__tab_inner
{
    color: #ffffff;
    background:url("../../tab_left_active.gif") no-repeat left;
    padding-left:10px;
}
.Tab .ajax__tab_active .ajax__tab_outer
{
    color: #ffffff;
    background:url("../../tab_right_active.gif") no-repeat right;
    padding-right:6px;
}
/*Tab Hover*/
.Tab .ajax__tab_hover .ajax__tab_tab
{
    color: #000000;
    background:url("../../tab_hover.gif") repeat-x;
    height:20px;
}
.Tab .ajax__tab_hover .ajax__tab_inner
{
    color: #000000;
    background:url("../../tab_left_hover.gif") no-repeat left;
    padding-left:10px;
}
.Tab .ajax__tab_hover .ajax__tab_outer
{
    color: #000000;
    background:url("../../tab_right_hover.gif") no-repeat right;
    padding-right:6px;
}
/*Tab Inactive*/
.Tab .ajax__tab_tab
{
    color: #666666;
    background:url("../../tab_Inactive.gif") repeat-x;
    height:20px;
}
.Tab .ajax__tab_inner
{
    color: #666666;
    background:url("../../tab_left_inactive.gif") no-repeat left;
    padding-left:10px;
}
.Tab .ajax__tab_outer
{
    color: #666666;
    background:url("../../tab_right_inactive.gif") no-repeat right;
    padding-right:6px;
    margin-right: 2px;
}

5. Now add CssClass="Tab" to TabContainer like this 

<cc1:TabContainer ID="TabContainer1" runat="server" ActiveTabIndex="0" CssClass="Tab" >

tab_left_active.gif tab_active.gif tab_right_active.gif tab_left_hover.gif tab_hover.gif tab_right_hover.gif tab_left_inactive.gif tab_Inactive.gif tab_right_inactive.gif

How to hide url parameters in asp.net

There are different ways to Hide the URL in asp.net , you can choose any one from bellow options . Previously I was Explained about the  Difference between Convert.tostring and .tostring() method Example  ,   Reasons to use Twitter Bootstrap , How to Register AJAX toolkit in web.config file in asp.net a) Using Post Method b) Using Of Session . c) URL Encoding & decoding process . d) Using Server.Transfer() instead of Response.Redirect() method (1)Use a form and POST the information. This might require additional code in source pages, but should not require logic changes in the target pages (merely change Request.QueryString to Request.Form).
