I built a calendar where I create a link button as a day's contents using a class derived from ITemplate.

This works fine.

Some of the days in the current month have events in them so I highlight these by setting the background image like this:

LinkButton link = new LinkButton();

link.ID = day.Date.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy");

link.Text = day.Date.Day.ToString();

link.ToolTip = day.ToolTip;

// Is there an event on this day?

if (bEvent)

{

    link.Style.Add("background", "url(" + SkinImagePath + "HoverBg.gif) left top no-repeat");

}

// Build the command parameters for this link.

link.Command += new CommandEventHandler(onDayClick);

link.CommandName = "ShowDay";

link.CommandArgument = day.Date.ToShortDateString();

CalendarCellContentTemplate template = new CalendarCellContentTemplate(calendar, day.Date, link);

I believe I got the method from another posting is this forum.  The problem is with the highlighted line.  It works fine with a skin such as Web20 but it looks wrong with other skins.  I looked in the skin CSS files and saw why.  For Web20 the background image is as big as a cell and so is not repeated.  With other skins the background image is very narrow and repeated on X.  Some other skins don't even have a "HoverBG.gif".

I want to allow my users to be able to select whichever skin they like so I want to know if there's a higher-level way of doing this?  Is there some property I can set?

Note, I also use the method described in this forum to disable hover so only the event days have this appearence:

Literal js = new Literal();

js.ID = "JavaScriptLiteral";

js.Text = "<script type=\"text/javascript\">\nwindow.onload = function()\n{\nRadCalendarNamespace.RenderDay.prototype.ApplyHoverBehavior = function(){return false;};\n}\n</script>\n";

Controls.Add(js);

Thank you.
