Calender Question

Hey, All my calender inputs are done with the ajax calender control, only problem is all the dates are coming up "American-style" ie MMMM d YYYY, is there a bit of code that`ll format this correctly? i just want the date to look like (if its today for instants) 16/07/07

Thanks in advance si!

You can set the format property to "dd/MM/yy" 

<ajaxToolkit:Calendar runat="server" TargetControlID="Date1"CssClass="ClassName"Format="dd/MM/yy"PopupButtonID="Image1" />

When i went to update the test date i got the error :

The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.

Is there a way of formatting the data in the database ? Si!

Here is a link that will help you to format in SQL

CalendarExtender: How to count days between two selected dates

Hi

How can I calculate the days between selected dates from 2 calendarExtender controls?

thank you

zipfeli

Are you calculating client side or server side?

Clientside. Actually I want to validate the days between two textboxt dates before postback. More than 30 days should give errormessage .

Hi,

Here is a sample for your reference:

function fun(e)
 {
 var ce1 = $find("ce1");
 var start = ce1.get_selectedDate();
 if(start == null)
 return;
 var ce2 = $find("ce2");
 var end = ce2.get_selectedDate();
 if(end == null)
 return;
 start.setDate(start.getDate() + 30);
 if(start < end)
 alert("invalid");
 start.setDate(start.getDate() - 30);
 }
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></div>
 <ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender ID="CalendarExtender1" BehaviorID="ce1" runat="server" TargetControlID="TextBox1"OnClientDateSelectionChanged="fun">
 </ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender>
   
 <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
 <ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender ID="CalendarExtender2" BehaviorID="ce2" runat="server" TargetControlID="TextBox2" OnClientDateSelectionChanged="fun">
 </ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender>

Hope this helps. 

CalendarExtender: Any way to make dates unselectable?

I'd like to make certain dates unselectable (ie Public Holidays)

Anyone know of a way to do it with the new calendar, something along the lines of the DayRender event that we have for the bog standard ASP calendar would be perfec.

thanks.

hi, i have the same problem. i also want to make dates in furure unselectable. this is possible with old asp:Calender, but not with CalenderExtender of AjaxToolkit. if you have found a solution please inform me.

many many thanx. my email:paijyj@.gmail.com

My approach has been to allow them to select it but then use a validator to inform them they can't choose a date in the future/past whenever.

CalendarExtender returns date in wrong format

Hi, i'm using the CalendarExtender control within my web forms. However it keeps returning my dates in the format mm/dd/yyyy but i need it in the format dd/mm/yyyy. I was wondering if someone could tell me how this could be done. ThanksUse the Format property of the CalendarExtender.
