Multiple RadDateTimePickers

[Sebastien Desemberg]

I have two RadDateTimePickers embedded in a DetailsView. The problem is that when I run the page, the picker for RadDatePickerStarts  inputs the date&time in the text box for the second picker (RadDatePickerEnds). The second picker  does not input the selected date&time anywhere. How do I get each picker to place input into the correct box?
 

  <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Starts" SortExpression="Starts">
                    <EditItemTemplate>
                        <telerik:RadDateTimePicker ClientIDMode="Static" SelectedDate='<%# Bind("Starts") %>'
                            ID="RadDatePickerStarts" runat="server">
                        </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>
                    </EditItemTemplate>
                    <InsertItemTemplate>
                        <telerik:RadDateTimePicker ClientIDMode="Static" SelectedDate='<%# Bind("Starts") %>'
                            ID="RadDatePickerStarts" runat="server">
                        </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>
                    </InsertItemTemplate>
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <telerik:RadDateTimePicker ClientIDMode="Static" SelectedDate='<%# Bind("Starts") %>'
                            ID="RadDatePickerStarts" runat="server">
                        </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>
                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Ends" SortExpression="Ends">
                    <EditItemTemplate>
                        <telerik:RadDateTimePicker ClientIDMode="Static" SelectedDate='<%# Bind("Ends") %>'
                            ID="RadDatePickerEnds" runat="server">
                        </telerik:RadDateTimePicker>
                        <asp:CompareValidator ID="CompareValidator1" runat="Server" ControlToCompare="RadDatePickerStarts"
                            ControlToValidate="RadDatePickerEnds" Operator="GreaterThan" ErrorMessage="Date range is not valid "
                            Display="Dynamic" />
                    </EditItemTemplate>
                    <InsertItemTemplate>
                        <telerik:RadDateTimePicker ClientIDMode="Static" SelectedDate='<%# Bind("Ends") %>'
                            ID="RadDatePickerEnds" runat="server">

Hello,

Please note that using Static ID mode for Rad controls is not supported. You should use AutoID mode for the RadDatePicker controls on the page.
Microsoft recommends using ClientIDMode=Static only for static control. RadControls on the other hand are controls with complex hierarchies of child controls and templates so setting their ClientID mode to static will break their functionality.
