RadCalendar Special Days Problem

[omer]

Hi to all

this is my code how to generate special days in code behind

private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var dc =
            new takvimDataContext(
                "Data Source=xxx;");
        var sDays = from tkvm in dc.takvims
                    where
                        tkvm.tarih.Year == RadCalendar1.Calendar.GetYear(RadCalendar1.CalendarView.ViewStartDate)
                    select tkvm;

        foreach (var day in sDays)
        {
            var rcd = new RadCalendarDay {Date = day.tarih,TemplateID = "tatil"};


            RadCalendar1.SpecialDays.Add(rcd);
            var cl = RadCalendar1.Calendar;

        }

and my problem is

 

i cant display specials days numbers in calendar
they are all empty (In template i make red background to specials days to see are they working ?)
when i try to fill them in template

 

<CalendarDayTemplates>
            <telerik:DayTemplate ID="tatil" runat="server">
                <Content>

                    <div style="background-color:Red">
                        <%= RadCalendar1.????????????%>
                    </div>
                </Content>
            </telerik:DayTemplate>
        </CalendarDayTemplates>

How can i show the current date in special days collection ?

Hi Omer,

Note that the required functionality could not be achieved with RadCalendar special days. The only possible way is to manually add the date to each specific template like this:

<CalendarDayTemplates>
           <telerik:DayTemplate ID="DateTemplate" runat="server">
               <Content>
                   <div class="rcTemplate rcDayDate">
                       1
                   </div>
               </Content>
           </telerik:DayTemplate>

Actually, there is a way to do this..

In the template, create some tokens to represent day specific data.. like this:-

<CalendarDayTemplates>

           <telerik:DayTemplate ID="DateTemplate" runat="server">

               <Content>

                   <div class="rcTemplate rcDayDate">

                       {DayOfMonth}

                   </div>

               </Content>

           </telerik:DayTemplate>

Then in the DayRender event handler, simply replace tokens based on currently rendered day:-

   protected void RadCalendar1_DayRender(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DayRenderEventArgs e)
        {
            // Do a token replace..
            e.Cell.Text = e.Cell.Text.Replace("{DayOfMonth}", e.Day.Date.Day.ToString());
     
        }

I hope that helps anyone who has stumbled accross this problem..
