Online Diary Mod Show Entry Title on Calendar

vgharris0 · March 29th, 2008, 04:11 PM

I got the online diary working and wanted to know how to modify the calendar code so that the Entry Titles are displayed on the calendar on the days they are added. For example, if I enter a diary entry on March 29 2008, I would like the calendar to display the title of this entry on March 29 below the date.

I appreciate your assistance.

Hi there,

You can handle the DayRender event and then insert a new control (like a Literal) into the Controls collection of the Cell, like this:

Code:

protected void Calendar1_DayRender(object sender, DayRenderEventArgs e)
{
  if (e.Day.IsSelected)
  {
    Literal myLiteral = new Literal();
    myLiteral.Text = "SomeText";
    e.Cell.Controls.AddAt(e.Cell.Controls.Count, myLiteral);
  }
}

Take a look at the following articles for more ideas and explanation:

Did you even resolve your other issues? I posted some pointers / tips but never heard back from you....

Hello Imar,

Thanks for your response.

Yes, I was able to resolve the previous issue. I was receiving the error message with the stored procedure because I didn't set-up the SQL DiaryDB database that goes with the calendar program correctly.

After recreating the database and making sure all stored procedures and functions were included, the program worked with a charm.

Thanks again for your response.

Great; glad you got it all working. Hopefully the Title solution worked as well....
