Atlas TabStrip with Asynchronous Callback

I've been thinking about how to dynamically load the contents for different panes from the previous Tabstrip example.  I accomplished this using the UpdatePanel with the Asp.net Multiview control.  You can check the end result in the demo below.  If time permits and after working out the kinks, I'll post the source here.

Update:  I added the source after some minor code cleanup and tweaks.  There is still more work to make it better.  Some ideas include adding nice effects when or after  the update panel is updated, only reload the tab panes if they haven't been loaded yet, apply better styling and css.  Let me know if you run into any issues.
