Find TabStrip index

Question

Is it possible to find the index of a tab in a KendoUI TabStrip? I need to find the index (number) of the tab that I select and I know that select() returns me current tab but I don' t know how to convert this to the number.

Answer 1

Found the solution:

$("#tabstrip").data("kendoTabStrip").select().index();

Answer 2

    function select(e) {
        var x = e.item;
        var index= $(e.item).index();
        $(".tabindex").val(index);
    }
