Change Ajax Toolkit Calendar Control Defaults To Mm/dd/yyyy ?
Mar 25, 2010
I have a text box which has a Ajax calendar extender attached. You click on the text box, the calendar pops up, you select a date and that gets displayed in the text box. That all good but the date is displayed in mm/dd/yyyy format. Can this be changed?
how can I localize calendar in Ajax Control Toolkit? In Web Forms it is easy, I would just set EnableScriptGlobalization to true on ScriptManager, but in MVC I don`t have this server side support.
I'm trying to use the Calendar control in a local intranet enviroment, so I need to put all the Javascript files locally, I've downloaded the Ajax Control Toolkit 40412 source code and extracted the Scripts from
"..AjaxControlToolkit_9c860ac12ae9SampleWebSitesAjaxClientWebSiteScripts",so I write the following code
This is not a big issue since it's quite easy to bypass by making a new project and copying everything on it, but it bothers me quite a bit that I can't figure out what it is about. In short my calendar and calendar extenders stop working suddenly. The last time this happened I made some changes to the pages code behind, then hit undo gazillion times to go back to the last save. After that I hit debug and lo and behold: calendar did not respond to any clicks and any text field with calendar extender did not show calendar on clicking them.
This happens in both IE8 and FireFox 3.6 and no amount or restart, rebuild and other such tricks do nothing. The only thing that I can figure out to solve the problem is either use a backup copy of a version that works or make a new project and then copy all the files from the not working into the new/earlier version and all works again. I was able to track down that this seems to relate somehow to AJAX as when I ran the debug I mention above, I got error messages on the web page saying something about AJAX. This however happened only once and I cant get it to happen again (and thus can not remember much about what it said).
Also when I debugged the event handling the calendar click, I get an error message like this: There is no source code available for the current location Then it opens a file search window trying to find some cs file inside the ajax control toolkit. However this only happened the first time I tried debugging the event and I can't remember more details about it. Now I just get that error message when debug exits the event.
So end analysis on my part: The ajax control tool kit gets knotted up all of a sudden for some mysterious reason and is tied to that particular project. Can anyone tell me what this could be about?
I am trying to change the color of the text in the title of a Calendar Extender Control from the AJAX Toolkit. I was having trouble getting the hover color to change, so I followed an example from this site:
I am Getting the following error using the Numeric UpDown Control from Ajax Control Toolkit. Assembly 'AjaxControlToolkit, Version=3.0.30512.20315, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e' contains a Web resource with name 'AjaxControlToolkit.NumericUpDown.NumericUpDownBehavior.debug.js', but does not contain an embedded resource with name 'AjaxControlToolkit.NumericUpDown.NumericUpDownBehavior.debug.js'.
I have not yet done a deep dive into the Toolkit code. I need to try and make a couple of changes to the Calendar. The first one feels like an "it can't only be me that needs this" problem. I have EarliestDate and LatestDate parameters floating around. The requirement is to prevent the user clicking (ie they display as text rather than hyperlinks) any dates which fall outside of the two date limits.
An extension of that (not essential, more of a luxury) would be to prevent the user moving to months or years where the dates within that month/year are completely outside of the allowable range. The second one relates to when the initial view of the Calendar is Years. I need to either be able to specify that the initial display starts for a given historical year (without showing that year in the textbox); or [better] to be able to squeeze a larger number of years onto the display, so that the user can move back a greater number of years with fewer clicks.
Currently, I am using Calendar control on ASPX page. Instead, I want to use AJAX Calendar Extender control because of the animation effect and the way it moves between years making if much more impressive than Calendar control.Is it possible to display Calendar extender on page permanently, just like Calendar control?
I have calendar in asp net 1.1 , I just wonder can I customer controll the change on the month , can I use the drop drown month to change the month in calendar ?
I'm a happy user of th Calendar extender, it's soooooo much better then the original calendar control. I would like to make it so that if the user selects a date after a certain date, the textbox control stays blank. On my form I create everything dynamically. So on page_init the whole form is created and put in a view. I use a table to align everything as I want it. The form is a check form where the user has to check radiobuttons to give an answer. At 11 lines he also has to select a date. Here is where the calendar extender comes in. It all works fine, but I want to make some kind of prevention so the user cannot select date in the future. How can I do this?
I saw in a lot of AjaxControlToolkit.resources.dll for different languages, even mine (Russian) in my bin folder so I guess that's real to change the language of my Ajax Calendar Extender.
but it made no sense for calendar :-/ by the way I have some fun in comparing my page and [URL] there I can see month names etc on Russian BUT "Today" an english >_< instead on my page month names are English and "Today" is Russian "Сегодня" ... is it phenomenon Finally fixed by adding
I am using Framework 2.0, ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 and Visual Studio 2005.I am using 2 Ajax Calendar Extender in my page. I am using a text box and html image control and setting the TargetControlID to the test box id and the PopupButtonID to the image control name. When i click the first image the calendar pops up and without choosing a date if i click the second image the second calendar control opens on top of the first calendar control. Is there any way i can make the previous one disappear without choosing a date leaving the calendar control associated with the last image clicked.
I am using ASP .NET C# 2.0. I have a web form with a Calendar control. In the DayRender event I am checking the e.Day.Date to see if it equals a date from my database. I am also checking other decimal values for that same day and displaying them in the cell. The values are for hours scheduled and hours worked. If hours worked is less than hours scheduled then I want to change the cell's back color to Yellow. I can only get this working for the last date in the month.
I also had a problem changing the ForeColor of the cell. To workaround that I had to find out if a certain CSS file was being used (my application uses 2 different files). Here is my code for my DayRender event:
The Ajax control toolkit tab panel automatically inserts a space by all four corners of the body. For example, go to http://www.asp.net/ajax/ajaxcontroltoolkit/Samples/Tabs/Tabs.aspx and look at the TabPanel on the page. The is a space before "Signature:" and "Bio:" labels. How can I set the space-width to 0px; in the tabPanel body?
When I click the button to open the modal popup it shows the popup but then continues and forces a postback causing the page to reload and the modal popup to be hidden again.Here is the markup for the control:
i have a page with some control like update panel and cascading dropdownlist. I have added some asp require validators but it does not working.
I have an asp image button with a postback url set. When i click on this button, the validations does not occurs and the application goes to the next page.
