Hello, all!
I placed an user control inside content page inserted in a master page. There are a lot of instances of the user control inside the content page. Each user control contains RadDatePicker and I would like to use a shared calendar via SharedCalendar property.
I placed RadCalendar into root of the content page and assigned the reference to this RadCalendar to RadDatePicker.SharedCalendar inside Page_Load.
The user controls, containing RadDatePickers are placed into UpdatePanels.
After each async postback I recieve error, saying that RadDatePicker's Java Script is unable to find RadCalendar client instance.More exactly: $find returns NULL.
Seems, refreshed RadDatePicker kills the client instance of RadCalendar.
Is there a way to overcome such behaviour?

The only way I was been able to fix the error is to place shared RadCalendar and all RadDatePickers, using this Calendar to the same UpdatePanel.
In other words: the scenario with multiple RadDatePickers inside different UpdatePanels and one RadCalendar in the root of the page (outside of the all UpdatePanels) doesn't work due relasing the client object after async postback.

Hi guys,
What's specific to such a scenario is that the SharedCalendar should be updated as well upon AJAX request. This is applicable both for the MS AJAX as well as when using RadAjax controls (manager or panel).
Kind regards,

Thank you, Konstantin. But, why DataPicker disposes shared Calendar's behaviour instance on each postback? It looks quite strange.

Updating the shared calendar means rerendering it.
In order to achive better performs, one would prefere not rendering the calendar each time the pickers are refreshed, as no actual change is made in the calendar.
