Introduction:

In this article I will explain how to use Ajax Calendar extender control in asp.net and how to change date format in ajax calendar control and display calendar control when click on image button in asp.net.

Description

Previously I explained many articles relating to 
Ajax. Now I will explain how to use ajax calendar extender control in asp.net and change date format and display calendar control when click on image button in asp.net. Before proceed to implement this have you install ajaxcontroltoolkit in visual studio or not if not install it otherwise if you already done then follow the below steps to use Ajax calendar extender control example in asp.net.


First create one new website and add AjaxControlToolkit reference to your application after that write following line in your aspx page

<%@ Register Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" tagPrefix="ajax" %>

Once we add above references design your aspx page will be likes this

<%@ Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="ajax" %>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title>Ajax Calendar extendar control exmaple in asp.net</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<ajax:ToolkitScriptManager ID="toolkit1" runat="server"></ajax:ToolkitScriptManager>
<table>
<tr>
<td><b>Select Date:</b></td>
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtDate" runat="server" />
<ajax:CalendarExtender ID="CalendarExtender1" TargetControlID="txtDate" Format="dd/MM/yyyy"runat="server">
</ajax:CalendarExtender> 
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><b>Select Date</b></td>
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtDate1" runat="server"/> <asp:ImageButton ID="imgbtnCalendar" runat="server"ImageUrl="~/Calendar.png" />
<ajax:CalendarExtender ID="CalendarExtender2" TargetControlID="txtDate1"PopupButtonID="imgbtnCalendar" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>
