Select a Kendo Tab after a page refresh

How do I select a kendo tab based on the completion of an event on a page?

I have a kendo ui tabstrip with 5 tabs, on the 5th tab (index 4) I have an upload control that fires an onComplete event when its done with it's upload. At that time, I would like to refresh the page and bring the focus back to the 5th tab by selecting it.

The code:

    function onImageComplete(e) {

    var tabstrip = $("#tabstrip").kendoTabStrip().data("kendoTabStrip");
    tabstrip.select(4);

    location.reload(true);
}

The code to select the tab desired works fine in my document ready function, but of course on document ready, I want the first tab to display. I only want the fifth tab after an event on tab 5.

Thanks

(any script advice is welcome)

If you really need to reload the page, then instead of using location.refresh use window.location, passing the URL of the current page. This time add a query string parameter, something like &selectTabIndex={index of tab to be selected}.

Within $(document).ready() check for that query string using something like the getParameterByName function detailed here and then use the kendo tabstrip select() function, passing in the value of the query string, i.e.:

$(document).ready(function() {
  var selectTabIndex = getParameterByName('selectTab');

  if (selectTabIndex != null) {
    var tabStrip = $('#tabStrip').getKendoTabStrip();
    tabStrip.select(selectTabIndex);
  }
});
