The issue is replicated in R3 2021 only. 

<telerik:RadTabStrip runat="server"  ID="RadTabStrip1" >
    <Tabs>
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Tab 1">
            <Tabs>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="fail"></telerik:RadTab>
            </Tabs>
        </telerik:RadTab>
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Tab 2"></telerik:RadTab>
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Tab 3"></telerik:RadTab>
    </Tabs>
</telerik:RadTabStrip>

Solution from Admin:

Place the load/script below somewhere under the ScriptManager. It can be added in the MasterPage if needed:

<script>
    Sys.Application.add_init(function fixTabStrip() {
        if (Telerik && Telerik.Web && Telerik.Web.UI && Telerik.Web.UI.RadTabStrip) {
            Telerik.Web.UI.RadTabStrip.prototype._childInserted = function (index, tab, owner) {
                this._allTabs = null;

                if (this._cachedSelectedTab) {
                    owner._setSelectedIndex(this._cachedSelectedTab.get_index());
                    this._cachedSelectedTab = null;
                }

                if (tab._cachedSelected) {
                    owner._setSelectedIndex(index);
                    tab._cachedSelected = false;
                }

                Telerik.Web.UI.RadTabStrip.callBaseMethod(this, "_childInserted", [index, tab, owner]);

                if (tab.get_isBreak()) {
                    var breakElement = document.createElement("li");
                    breakElement.className = "rtsBreak";
                    owner.get_childListElement().insertBefore(breakElement, tab._element.nextSibling);
                }

                //if (tab.get_parent() && tab.get_parent() instanceof Telerik.Web.UI.RadTab && tab.get_parent().get_selected()) {
                //    $telerik.$(tab.get_parent().get_levelElement()).removeClass("rtsHidden");
                //}
            }
        }
    });
</script>

While it is currently possible to target the first or last item in a RadTabStrip via their CSS classes .rtsFirst and .rtsLast, it is not possible to target individual items, e.g. to add a custom icon or display different background images in tabs.

Assigning icons via the ImageURL property is often not feasible, e.g. when using the RadTabStrip-based navigation controls in Sitefinity.

Numbering the list items, e.g. .rtsLI1, .rtsLI2, .rtsLI3, etc., would be trivial to implement and provide a lot of flexibility through individual CSS targeting.

This also applies to the RadPanelBar and RadMenu controls.

In the RadMultipageView a portal URL is set as content. The user navigates to one of the pages within the portal. Now there is no way to go back to previous page or to the default landing page where the tab was initially at.

Requesting a new feature in the tab strip to allow navigate through the iframe history (back/forward) for a multipage view. It could be similar to the back/forward buttons of the browser but within the tab of the tab strip where the content URL is set in the multipage view. This could be set enable/disable by a setting.

When a TabStrip has Keyboard navigation active, the focus CSS class (rtsFocused) is not removed from the previously active tab when clicking on other tabs with the mouse.

<telerik:RadTabStrip RenderMode="Lightweight" ID="RadTabStrip1" runat="server">
    <Tabs>
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Examples" />
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Configurator">
            <Tabs>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="Default"></telerik:RadTab>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="Test"></telerik:RadTab>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="Final"></telerik:RadTab>
            </Tabs>
        </telerik:RadTab>
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Quick Start" />
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Help">
            <Tabs>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="Search"></telerik:RadTab>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="Topics"></telerik:RadTab>
                <telerik:RadTab Text="Troubleshooting"></telerik:RadTab>
            </Tabs>
        </telerik:RadTab>
        <telerik:RadTab Text="Purchase" />
    </Tabs>
    <KeyboardNavigationSettings CommandKey="Alt" FocusKey="A" />
</telerik:RadTabStrip>

When no keyboard navigation is used, the behavior is acting correctly.

Please see the ticket here http://www.telerik.com/account/support-tickets/view-ticket?threadid=1010098.

I still need to support IE8 browsers.  The removal of the frameBorder attribute from the iframe rendering causes layout issues in IE8.  Adding a property to the RadPageView project to re-enable this behavior would fix this issue.  It could be false by default in order to pass the cited validation tool.  The developer would have to enable the property in order for the frameBorder attribute to be rendered as frameBorder="0".

Where we use the ShowBaseLine property in Horizontal Orientation, the same feature is not available when in Vertical Orientation

Hi Telerik team,

Few of our clients reported the following issue with respect to WCAG 2.0 SC 4.1.2 standard. (508 Standard and compliance) -

Example: visit https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/tabstrip/examples/wai-aria-support/defaultcs.aspx 

Observe the ul-li elements created for tabstrip. On each li element, there is aria-level attribute whose value is set to 0.

As per WCAG this value should start from 1. The value 0 is invalid. Refer: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/ARIA12.html

Please let me know when are you going to fix this for compliance.

Few of our clients reported the following issue with respect to WCAG 2.0 SC 4.1.2 standard. (508 Standard and compliance) -

Example: When Telerik Tabstrip has EnableAriaSupport=true, internally tabstrip is combination of ul-li with css to display the Tabs properly -

The html looks like as follows -  

Observe the aria attributes which are on li elements. Is that really necessary considering the compliance? (as mentioned in practice and example).

Please let me know when are you going to fix this for compliance.

Scenario: RadButton within RadPageView part of RadMultiPageView integrated with RadTabStrip for switching PageViews.

When switching tabs, additional padding is applied to the text in RadButton. After a postback is made, padding is not applied anymore.

Steps to reproduce:
Use the code below. Select the Members tab and press the tab key - nothing happens. Focusing the DataPicker is expected.

i have create tab by using tabstrip and assing pageview to that tab but on delete of tab the page view is not deleting .for deleteing  i have use close imagebutton,tab will delete but pageview is not delete.pls suggest me how to delete tab alone tab alone with pageview.

1)If already one tab opened means-->just i want to select tab(without postback)

for that me use set_selected(true) and select().But its also fires OnClientTabSelected Client Side API function.

So how can i achieve this?

 OnClientTabSelecting function available to get focus of user select a tab.Becoz i want two functionality

1)I want  postback for some specific of the tabs when user clicks already opened tabs

2)I want to select a Tab(without postback) when user clicks from Leftmenu(RadPanelBar)

Pls explain with sample code how to achieve both Its very urgent

3) In my left side user control  RadPanelItem me used.Based on this only tabs are opened based

Functionality me need -->whenever user select a already opened tabs its corresponding menu also should select in RadPanelbar(PanelItem)

Me tried this logic
============
function ClientTabsSelected(sender, args) {
var tab = args.get_tab();
GetItemText(tab.get_text());
}

    function GetItemText(currenttabtext) { //This function me put left side user control.

          var panelBar = $find("<%=RadPanelBar1.ClientID%>");

           var currentitem = panelBar.findItemByText(currenttabtext);

           if (currentitem) {
               currentitem.set_selected(true);
               currentitem.expand();
          }

      }
================================

Its works only when panelitem expand.If already selected item in Panelbar collapsed means.Its select properly (rpSelected CSS Class assigned  me find using inspect element)

But its not expand..Please help me solve this also

Please response soon.Its very urgent
