Calender control in asp.net - asp.net

I am writing a website in asp.net and looking for a control in which I can show a simple but very good looking calender.
The calender shoud show different events with a timestamp on it and additional informations (e.g.: 20 persons registered).
On a click on the event it should show the details.
All this must be read out of a database.
Any ideas?

The Telerik RadScheduler comes to mind, but is paid: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/scheduler/examples/overview/defaultcs.aspx
For free there is FullCalendar for JQuery: http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/

DHTMLX Scheduler .NET is also an option. Check this demo, it looks good http://scheduler-net.com/demo.aspx

How to create own datepicker control in asp.net?

I want to create my own datepickar control(or dll),so can use it another project.How to create that?
Why create such a thing for yourself and invest a lot of time investigating, fixing problems, providing support, ... for it?
There are a bunch of such controls available which can be found with a simple search via your preferred search engine.
For ASP.NET I would suggest to either buy a 3rd party control from a well known vendor or take a look at the following:
jQuery UI Datepicker
ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit Calendar control
If you're using ASP.NET 4.0 or above, I'd suggest using the Bootstrap datepicker to keep your application looking consistent.
You can find the Bootstrap datepicker here: https://bootstrap-datepicker.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Validating a textbox with AJAX Toolkit in ASP.NET

I'm not really sure where or what to search for regarding the following question:
I have a TextBox control and a Label control on my page. I have a database query ready and I would like to run it on the TextBox textchanged event in order to display a "valid" or "not valid" text in the Label.
How can I achieve this without posting back the entire page on each textchanged event? I have installed the AJAX Control Toolkit and got the samples working but I don't seem to find an extender that would fit the bill. Any tips? Much appreciated, thank you.
Firstly, move away from the AjaxControlToolkit. This is for lazy web developers who dont know what they are doing.
Secondly, check out jQuery Ajax. Learn how to use it properly in order to do what you are needing to do.
Basically what you will need to do is post via jQuery Ajax to your page/webservice in order to run the database query. You can then return your data to the page and update the UI.

asp.net calendar control: is it good?

I'm looking to determine if I'm going to use the calendar control that's out-of-the-box in ASP.NET 4 or if I should look elsewhere, may be a jQuery calendar that just receives json or another .net server option.
Has anyone worked with the native calendar control?
Thanks.
I personally like Rick Strahl's implementation of the [link text][jQuery Date Picker] for ASP.Net. I used the one at http://www.eworldui.net/ prior to discovering the West Wind date picker, and will never go back.
I personally do not like asp.net native calendar control due to lack of extensibility. I would create a JQuery control since it will be more responsive(client-side).
Or take a look here: http://www.eworldui.net/

How to disable a collections of dates for Telerik DateTimePicker?

For a telerik DateTimePicker, I need you to disable a collection of certain dates, so user cannot select them? Is there any client/server side events that can do this?
Wire the DayRender server and client events of the calendar inside the picker - I found a demo project on the telerik site about that.

I'm going to start working on project developed in ASP.NET.

If not, what do you suggest?
There's the Calendar control in ASP.NET which offers some basic functionality that you may take a look at. There's also a calendar extension in the AJAX Control Toolkit.
