posted

I am trying to add a WebDateChooser to my .aspx page from code behind. When the page is run the control renders but when you click on the drop down image to view the calender nothing happens. What an i doing wrong?

 

Here is my code.

 

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

namespace WebApplication2
{
    public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Infragistics.WebUI.WebSchedule.WebDateChooser wdc = new Infragistics.WebUI.WebSchedule.WebDateChooser();
            wdc.ID = "tempID";
            wdc.Width = Unit.Pixel(75);

            Page.Controls.Add(wdc);
        }
    }
}

 

 

and the markup

 

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebApplication2._Default" %>

<%@ Register assembly="Infragistics2.WebUI.WebDateChooser.v7.3, Version=7.3.20073.38, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7dd5c3163f2cd0cb" namespace="Infragistics.WebUI.WebSchedule" tagprefix="igsch" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>

    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

 

Any help is much appreciated.

    Hi mhussain,

    The dot-net does not support server controls outside of <form>. You should use form instead of page.
    Examples to fix:

    this.Form.Controls.Add(wdc);
    or
    this.Page.Form.Controls.Add(wdc);
    or
    this.form1.Controls.Add(wdc);
