How do I render a textbox in each day of the calendar

[Marshall Moorman]

I am trying to render a textbox for each day of a calendar, but I am getting an exception.

Page cannot be null. Please ensure that this operation is being performed in the context of an ASP.NET request.

Can someone tell me how to accomplish this?

<telerik:RadCalendar ID="calendar" Width="500px" Height="400px" runat="server" OnDayRender="calendar_DayRender">
            <CalendarDayTemplates>
                <telerik:DayTemplate ID="templateMinutes">
                    <Content>
                        <telerik:RadTextBox ID="txtMinutes" runat="server" Columns="5">
                        </telerik:RadTextBox>
                    </Content>
                </telerik:DayTemplate>
            </CalendarDayTemplates>
        </telerik:RadCalendar>

Hello Marshall,

Try adding the textbox in DayRender event and see whether it meets your requirement. Here is the code that I tried.

CS:

    protected void calendar_DayRender(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs e)
    {
        TextBox text = new TextBox();
       text.Text = e.Day.Date.ToString();
        e.Cell.Controls.Add(text);
    }

Thanks,
Princy.

That works, but I am wanting to use a RadTextBox instead of just an ASP TextBox.

Hi Marshall,

 
To implement the desired by you functionality, I suggest that you add the RadTextBox to a Day Template and use it for all dates.

Give this suggestion a go and let me know how it goes.
