AJAX :: VS2010 - Controls In The Toolbox Are Grayed Out And Disabled
Jun 5, 2010
I am using VS 2010, just downloaded the Ajax Control Toolkit Binaries, have got not wireless mouse (even I tried to unplug my mouse - no success -) and I have tried deleting the .tbd files as mentioned
here; but still the Ajax control toolkit controls are grayed out and disabled!
I have tried the following also:
1. creating a new webite.
2. changing the target .NET framework from 4.0 to 3.5 and vice versa.
I just upgraded from 3.5 to 4.0 and downloaded and installed the AJAX toolkit to my toolbox. However, all the controls in the AJAX list (and other "non-standard" lists also, such as Silverlight and Form controls) are disabled.
I opened an existing VB WINFORM Project on Sunday that I had been working with on Friday, but now the toolbox only showed REPORTING and Visual basic PowerPacks.I had not added or changed the toolbox since I used it on Friday (in fact there have been no changes for a long time....if ever).I tried running "devenv /installvstemplates" and "devenv /resetskippkgs" but they didn't fix it.If I do a "Show All" on the toolbox, a Standard heading shows, but all controls (Label, Textbox, Button, etc) are grayed out
I'm trying to build a Pivottable on a webform in vb.net 2005 using OWC. I have added the Pivottable item to the toolbox, but it is grayed out and so I cant use it. If I develop a Winform instead of a Webform then the toolbox items are there and work correctly.
I am trying to use one of the componets of the WPF Toolkit,[URL] but when I look for the component in my Toolbox it's not there, so when I set the Toolbox to ShowAll, the components are listed but they are grayed out. I right click on the Toolbox > Choose Items and look for the component in my list and ensure that the component is selected, but it still shows up as grayed out. If I turn off ShowAll the components are not listed. How do I get these grayed out components available for use?
According to the above article you "Unblock" the zip file and then unzip it. You then create a new tab within the toolbox window and add the dll to show and use the toolbox items. However when I do that I'm getting the following:
using .net 4.0 and trying to open a modalpopup with grid loading; it pops up but doesn't grayout the rest of the page, allowing more clicking on the grid. I want the page to grayout with modalpopup and disable any further activity until the grid is loaded.
I've been using AJAX 3.0 in my project for a while. Today I started another project and wanted to use some of their other controls I have read about. I only show a few controls in my toolbox such as Pointer, Script manager, Script manager Proxy, Timer, UpdatePanel and UpdateProgress. How do I get the others to show such as the HTMLEditor control?
I have a huge content on a page which scroll's down vertically and when I try to popup a modalpopup control on this page, some part of the screen is not grayed out on IE6 and user can interact with the background page ( even when modal popup is open) . This happens only on IE6 works fine on IE8 and firefox .
Why would only some of the controls show in the toolbox of VS2008? I am using Ajax 3.0 and was working fine for a couple years. Now I do not have all of the extenders available to controls. I removed the reference and added it back for the dll. Still the same.
I can't insert Ajax controls in VS2010. I installed the latest release of Ajax and have tried to use several ajax controls. In particular I tried to insert a combobox control and I get nothing. I removed Ajax and reinstalled and I get the same problem.I have installed ajax twice. I am an expereinced ajax user. Is there something else I need to install in VS2010 to get Ajax to work?
I just drag a listview to my web page. When I config the data source, click the advanced button.I found that the item "Generate INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements blah blah" is grayed out. Therefore I can'tmodify the records at runtime.I am using VWD 2008 Express,
I went to the Code Plex site and down load the latest toolkit. Then followed the instructions on how to set up the toolkit to the letter. When I first loaded the toolkit everything worked. But now every time I start up my computer and start VS all the AJAX controls I have on any page has the green squiggly line underneath it and the error says:Element <AJAX Control Name> is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the web site, or the webconfig file is missing.The only thing I can do is delete the Ajax Toolkit tab then add the tab again and then "Choose Items..." and load the Ajax controls again. Then I have to add an AJAX control from the toolkit to any webpage. Once that is done all the green squiggly lines go away and I can continue.This is becoming an incredible pain. Please let me know what I can do to fix this.
The Tabpanel is not showing in toolbox. I have installed the toolbox using the posted instructions. I have a TabContainer but no panel. It is notan item that even shows when I try to select my toolbox items.
I downloaded and installed AJAX Control Toolkit, following this link
http://www.asp.net/ajaxlibrary/act.ashx.
The tab doesn't show on the Toolbox. I right clicked at the Toolbox and select Show All. The tab and the controls shows up but all controls are gray out, look like disable. How can I make enable?
ive used the Ajax Control Toolkit in previous versions of VWD but for some reason im having trouble adding the Toolkit to the toolbox in this new version (2010) i have setup on my laptop, when i browse to and select the .dll file it gives me the error "Object reference not set to instance of an object" can anyone please help ive been trying to fix this issue for a little over an hour now.
I have just installed VS 2010 Professional. After I create a c# web project with default target 4.0, I don't see most items in ajax toolbox. When I try to choose items, CalendarExtender along with other items are not in the list to choose from.Shouldn't those items like CalenderExtender be available by default? Suppose I could manually download the ajax toolkit but is that the right way to fix it?
I'm using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express with the AJAX control toolbox.I've created a web page using controls from the AJAX tool kit. When I preview the page in the browser from the IDE it looks fine.When I upload the page to a server and try to view the page in IE, none of the AJAX controls are there. Would anyone be able to explain this?
i open visual studio 2008 and create a new project, in this project i use the ajaxcontroltoolkit, now in the vs toolbox i add a new tab, and named it AjaxcontrolToolkit, then i click on it and select choose items, in the .net framework components i browseto the ajaxcontroltoolkit dll, then all the ajaxcontroltoolki controls appears in the tab, an work fine, but when i close the vs and start it again i lost that tab, there are any way to keep in this tab for the next restart of vs?
So basically when i open the page i get the error above.
I've removed-added the toolkit toolbox.The error occurs p.e. in MaskedEditvalidator when i remove the mask from
MaskedEditExtender.Ok i know that it probably needs a mask and it crashes but what the hell is the
C:UsersswaltherProjectsAspNetAjaxReleases30930AjaxControlToolkitSourceAjaxControlToolkitMaskedEditMaskedEditCommon.cs ?? I don't even use c: for any project.Who is swalther?WTH?
And is there a MaskedEditCommon.cs in the toolkit?I did not find any MaskedEditCommon.cs in whatever, version library or whatever i downloaded.

I installed VS 08. and then installed Ajax extensions 1.0. I also downloaded ajax control toolkit and added to my toolbox. And I placed scriptmanager on the designer. Now when I am trying to add functionality to standard button via smart tag option. I see this option disabled. how can I enable it and have extenders in play.
I am just about out of my mind on this due to spending way to much time trying to find an answer with no results. I am using vwd2008. The website is in 2.0 due to the hosting company not supporting 3.5 yet. I was using the ajax toolkit without any issues. Now all of a sudden the script manager is greyed out as are the tools. If I open a new site they are enabled. It's only on the two sites I have built in 2.0.
I went back to vwd2005 for this web and here the tools are visible and enabled but scriptmanager is greyed out. I tried tricking the site by building a page in a new web in vwd2008 and importing in the pages but when I try to load them I get an error related to scriptmanager. I've read many posts related to wireless devices causing issues but I have none attached. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both applications but nothing changes. I updated my web.config file to contain the following code:
I have an accordion and a nested accordion as a menu ba on left. thepanes contain various controls mainly dropdownlists. I disable the accordion after a user has enetered some values and clicked the search button. However in IE7 the accordion is disabld and all the contained controls are too. But in IE6 the dropdownlists aren't disabled whats the reason behind this and whats the solution?
