DayRenderEventHandler Delegate

Definition

Represents the method that handles the DayRender event of the Calendar control.

public delegate void DayRenderEventHandler(System::Object ^ sender, DayRenderEventArgs ^ e);
public delegate void DayRenderEventHandler(object sender, DayRenderEventArgs e);
type DayRenderEventHandler = delegate of obj * DayRenderEventArgs -> unit
Public Delegate Sub DayRenderEventHandler(sender As Object, e As DayRenderEventArgs)

Parameters

sender
Object

The source of the event.

e
DayRenderEventArgs

A DayRenderEventArgs that contains the event data.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to specify and code a handler for the DayRender event to make the background color yellow for the days in the displayed month. It also demonstrates how to customize the contents of a cell by adding a System.Web.UI.LiteralControl control to the cell.

Remarks

Although data binding is not supported for the Calendar control, it is possible to modify the content and formatting of the individual date cells. Before the Calendar control is displayed on a Web page, it creates and assembles the components that make up the control. The DayRender event is raised when each date cell in the Calendar control is created. You can control the contents and formatting of a date cell when it is created by providing code in the event handler for the DayRender event. For more information on customizing the contents of a date cell, see OnDayRender.

When you create a DayRenderEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that will handle the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. For more information about event handler delegates, see Handling and Raising Events.
