programmatically add calendarextender

hey all,

is this possible to attach a calendarextender control to a textbox? i'm trying to build all my controls dynamically and i'm having problems with postback/async callback behavior. Mainly not understanding what's going on? anyone have any good references on how to do this? That is, build all controls dynamically with some ajax mixed in?

thanks,

You certainly can do that.

You will just have to create an instance of the calendarextender, assign it the textbox id to its targetcontrolID property. Also make sure this web page/user control has reference to the AJAX tool kit assembly

e.g.

//first add textbox dynamically and give it an IDTextBox myTextBox =new TextBox();myTextBox.ID ="txtCalendar";//now add the calendarExtendar and assign the targetcontrol IDAjaxControlToolkit.CalendarExtender myCalExt =new AjaxControlToolkit.CalendarExtender();myCalExt.TargetControlID = myTextBox.ID;//add both controls to the form/panel control collectionthis.Form1.Controls.Add(myTextBox);this.Form1.Controls.Add(myCalExt);
