1 solution

Hi,

Here I'm providing link for generating calender with dropdownlist controls

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/scripting/JavaScriptCalendar.aspx

I hope this links helps you to understand calender control details


And I tried some code for generating months in dropdown list

ASP.NET
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
  <table>
    <tr>
      <td>Year :
          <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlyear" runat="server">

      </td>
      <td>Month :
          <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlmonth" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
              onselectedindexchanged="ddlmonth_SelectedIndexChanged">

      </td>
      <td>Date :
          <asp:DropDownList ID="ddldate" runat="server">

      </td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</div>
</form>


And the code behind file contains following code

C#
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!IsPostBack)
    {

        for (int i = 1; i <= 12; i++)
        {
             System.Globalization .DateTimeFormatInfo nm=new System.Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo ();
             ddlmonth.Items.Add (new ListItem (nm.GetMonthName(i).ToString (),i.ToString ()));

        }
        for (int i = 1900; i <= System.DateTime.Now.Year; i++)
        {


            ddlyear.Items.Add (new ListItem( i.ToString (),i.ToString ()));

        }

    }
}
protected void ddlmonth_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ddldate.Items.Clear();
    for (int i = 1; i <= System.DateTime.DaysInMonth(int.Parse(ddlyear.SelectedValue), int.Parse(ddlmonth.SelectedValue)); i++)
    {
          ddldate .Items.Add (new ListItem (i.ToString (),i.ToString ()));
    }

}


In the above code I filled days based on month selected by user.

If you can use jquery it is easy fill dynamically with asynchronous requests.
or use Ajax update panels also

All the Best

Its working fine only but what the matter of fact is you checked the months but you didnt checked the leap years that is when we select a leap year in the dropdown list means it wont show the February 29days instead of that it shows only 28 days. but it is worthful code

Hi Manikandan,

Thanks for your observation.

That is my mistake I just typed month id instead of year .And no need to check whether leap year or not in manually DaysInMonth() method checks internally thn returns corresponding days.
