Web DateTimePicker

It seems strange but till now no such basic control has been made part of a web standard toolbox. It is easy to find and there are plenty of them calendards, time controls but no an integrated control that incorporates both.

Sure such control could be developed and no doubts. I am referring to this not from a pure developing point of view but from a end customer's. I need such control and I would prefer to use an standard control and not having to add additional user or thid-party controls

Hi,

There is a Calender control in standard toolbox, please refer to these documentations for more information:

I am not referring to a Calendar....

What is missing is a DateTime picker


I'm afraid this is the only control in standard toolbox currently.


Raymon,

I am raising this because I believe that Microsoft should provide a similar control to the one provide under windows, I know that there are 3rd paty controls and I will have to use one of them or build my own, but that is not the point I am stressing.

What I am asking is to include such control for future versions of ASP.NET, hopefully one of the guys at Microsoft take the suggestion on board...


The most efficient way to submit a suggestion is create an item here[http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio]. Thanks.
