Hi,
I want the (default value on load in)rendering in datepicker to be __/__/__ on load, and user should be able to insert dates, without having to enter the '/'. I am using Telerik Q1 2009.
I learn from the forum that raddatepicker's dateinput had this property which was removed in the later version to apply free form logic.
In one of the threads, you have explained how to achieve this on blur.
I would like to do this on load (and not on blur). Is there way to do this, without writing the masking logic in javascript ?
Thanks & Regards,
Sachin

Hi All,

Thanks in advance,

Hi Sachin,
We have Code Library article showing you how to replace RadDatePicker's default input box with a regular ASP.NET TextBox control. Starting from that example, I have created a small page demonstrating how to replace the input control of a RadDatePicker with a RadMaskedTextBox control for which you can easily set an input mask.
The idea is to hide your default input box for the date picker, and bind your custom input control to the picker using client API. You need to handle three points of execution:
1. When the popup is displayed, we need it below the custom input control
2. When a date is selected, we need to display its value in the custom input
3. When a date is entered manually, we need to parse it and set the date picker's selected date
You can take a look at the sample page and see how this solution works for you.
Kind regards,

Hi Team,
Would it be possible to have the mask based on the culture applied to the datepicker?
ex. "/" for US "-" for Portuguese ?

Hello Sachin,
Yes is it possible. You can either set the Mask in the code behind by checking the culture first. Or use the property localization provided in the ASP.
All the best,
