DatePicker without Calendar

[oVan]

Hi everyone. I need a datepicker object where the user can only select a month and a year.

I thought about hiding the calendar inside the datepicker, leaving only the title with fast navigation buttons. So I setup the control as follows:

<tk:RadDatePicker ...>
  <Calendar>
    <CalendarTableStyle CssClass="cssDisplayNone" />
  </Calendar>
</tk:RadDatePicker>

Upon first rendering this works ok, but as soon as you click any of the navigation buttons, or select a month/year combination, the calendar is drawn again.

What I want is either a dateinput control that shows a month/year selection, or the title part of the calendar working as described above. A selection box like the quick popup when you click the titles would be fine too.

What is the best solution to fix/solve this?
Thanks in advance,
oVan

Hi Konstantin, thank you for your quick and helpfull answer.

Two questions remain on my mind now: can this be done server-side (I doubt this), and will this work with a shared calendar?

Thanks again!

Hello oVan,

Unfortunately you are correct in your assumption - it needs the client-side implementation. As to the shared calendar, you just need to get the shared calendar Client Object instead.
