.NET 3.5 AJAX Toolkit Calendar Extender 

I am developing a custom control which I want to use the Popup Calendar and cannot get it to work.  I have added a ScriptManager to my control and added the approproate code to use the calendar and when it loads in the page nothing happens.  I have upgraded my 4.8.2 install to .NET 3.5 and developing my control in .NET 3.5. 

Is there anything specific I need to do to get this to work?

Re: .NET 3.5 AJAX Toolkit Calendar Extender 

So no one is using .NET 3.5 and the controls in the AJAX Toolkit with DNN?

Re: .NET 3.5 AJAX Toolkit Calendar Extender 

I havent tried it in .NET 3.5, but the popup extender does work in .NET 2.0.  For it to work, your skin's doctype must be xhtml transitional.  You can do this by creating a file called yourskinname.DOCTYPE.xml in your skin folder, and placing this xml inside it:

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

Re: .NET 3.5 AJAX Toolkit Calendar Extender 

I may be mistaken, but I believe I recall that the calendar popup works okay in transitional.  Regardless, SOMETHING happens in that mode, and it sounds like the original poster isn't seeing any activity at all.

In my experience, this is usually caused by a misconfiguration of the very exacting markup required by the extender.  If faced with this situation, I'd use the exact markup with the toolkit samples and see if I couldn't get that to work.  Once that was operational, I'd slowly change the toolkit example to meet my needs.

You sohuldn't need a scriptmanager on your page.  DNN will include it automatically with the proper configuration.

I've used the calendar popup extender inside a DNN module before, so it can be done.  DNN also plays nicely with .NET 3.5.

Re: .NET 3.5 AJAX Toolkit Calendar Extender 

Thanks all for the suggestions.  I have done what JK mentioned (add the XML file) and end up with a large red rectangle at the bottom of my website.  I have done what Brandon mentions prior to posting but my development environment was hosed up so I never did get to see if it worked or not. 

I will try that again and let you know my findings.

Thanks
