destroy

Prepares the TabStrip for safe removal from DOM. Detaches all event handlers and removes jQuery.data attributes to avoid memory leaks. Calls destroy method of any child Kendo widgets.

Important: This method does not remove the TabStrip element from DOM.

    <div id="foo" data-role="view">
      Button
      <div data-role="footer">
        <div data-role="tabstrip">
          foo
          bar
          baz
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>


    <script>
    var app = new kendo.mobile.Application();
    function onClick() {
      var tabstrip = app.view().footer.find(".km-tabstrip").data("kendoMobileTabStrip");
      tabstrip.destroy(); //detach events
      tabstrip.wrapper.remove(); //remove DOM elements
    }
    </script>
