I have an ASP.Net app that uses the calendar control to select a report
for a particular date. Reports exist for most dates, but not all, so I
would like to highlight the dates for which the reports exist. I asked
about this a while back and was told to use the Calendar.OnDayRender()
method. I am reading about this and getting totally confuesd.
Here is the microsoft documentation http://tinyurl.com/nd4od
I am using ASP.Net 1.1 with VB and using the IDE
First they show this code:
Protected Overridable Sub OnDayRender( _
ByVal cell As TableCell, _
ByVal day As CalendarDay _
)
Is that something I add to my code, or something that is already there?
If I need to add it to my code, where does it go?
Then they show the code below which doesn't look like anything I am
used to seeing in the IDE. I don't understand the html tags around the
VB code. Where does this code go if I am using the IDE?
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="True" %>
<html>
<head>
<script language="VB" runat="server">
Sub DayRender(source As Object, e As DayRenderEventArgs)
' Change the background color of the days in the month
' to yellow.
If Not e.Day.IsOtherMonth And Not e.Day.IsWeekend Then
e.Cell.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Yellow
End If
' Add custom text to cell in the Calendar control.
If e.Day.Date.Day = 18 Then
e.Cell.Controls.Add(New LiteralControl(ChrW(60) & "br"
& ChrW(62) & "Holiday"))
End If
End Sub 'DayRender
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form runat="server">
<h3>DayRender Event Example</h3>
<asp:Calendar id="calendar1"
OnDayRender="DayRender"

<WeekendDayStyle BackColor="gray">
