OnDayRender not changing background color until month is changed.

[Sean]

I am changing the background color of a date ( that is being provided from the database ) by using the Calendar OnDayRender.  The problem is that when the page initially loads the background color is not present.  But if I change the month, then go back to the previous month, the background color appears.

 

ASP:

<telerik:RadDatePicker AutoPostBack="true" OnSelectedDateChanged="rdpEnd_SelectedDateChanged" ID="rdpEnd" ToolTip="" class="form-control" Style="width: 100%;" Height="30px" aria-describedby="ptoEndDate" runat="server">

<DatePopupButton ToolTip="" />
<Calendar runat="server" ShowRowHeaders="false" OnDayRender="CustomizeDay">

</Calendar>
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

 

C#

protected void CustomizeDay(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs e)
{
  DateTime CurrentDate = e.Day.Date;
  using (DataClassesDataContext db = new DataClassesDataContext())
  {
    if(db.Calendars.Where(x => x.date.Value.Date == e.Day.Date).Any())
      {
       TableCell currentCell = e.Cell;
       currentCell.Style["background-color"] = "#000000";
      }
   }
}

Hi Sean,

In order to customize some dates in the DatePicker you need to handle the DayRender events on the server and on the client. Check out the following code-library that illustrates similar scenario.
