Date validation on scheduler

[icilink.com]

I notice that when trying to enter a appt on your demo of the scheduler that if you have the end date (7/1/2008 8:00AM) prior to the start date (7/1/2008 9:00AM) your page blows up, is there anyway to trap this event in the advance edit template and show a reasonable message to the user? or anyother way of adding date validation into the event creation?

thx

Hi,

(Same reply as in the support ticket)

You can perform additional validation in the AppointmentInsert and AppointmentUpdate server-side events. For example:

protected void RadScheduler1_AppointmentInsert(object sender, SchedulerCancelEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Appointment.Start > e.Appointment.End)
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}

Canceling the event will return the user to the advanced template.

I am implementing an advancededit/insert template & have used the suggestion to cancel the event if my business rules are violated based on the new user input.  The event is canceled, which is great.  However, the edit/insert form now shows empty so the user no longer has any idea what they had entered.  Is there a way to rebind the template during this event so that the user can see why their data failed validation?

Hi debbie,

Which version do you use. The latest version from Q3 2008 does not have this problem. Pelase, try with it and let us know how it goes.

I am using Q3 controls, so there must be something else.  I can submit a ticket if need be.

Yes, please open a ticket and send us a simple demo project of the problem.
