Hi guys, is there any good free/open source time picker control that goes well with ASP.NET Calendar control ?

thanks in advance

Since it's the only one I've used, I would suggest the CalendarExtender from http://www.ajaxcontroltoolkit.com/

The last time I tried to use this toolkit I gave up the first time I needed to customize/extend something. The source code was beyond horrible. I certainly hope they've improved since then, but based on my experience (and the wealth of better Ajax control options like Ext, YUI, Dojo, etc.) I'd avoid this entire library like the plague.

is it possible that the MaskedEdit could give you what you want?http://www.ajaxcontroltoolkit.com/MaskedEdit/MaskedEdit.aspx

it will work but not very user friendly. it should be effortless like the jquery demo mentioned earlier but i had issues integrating it with asp.net

UPDATE - i have resolved the integrating issues.

JQuery has the best datepicker IMHO. While it's not specific to .Net is still works great.

HTML:

<input type="text" value="9/23/2009" style="width: 100px;" readonly="readonly" name="Date" id="Date" class="hasDatepicker"/>

In head element:

<script src="../../Scripts/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" language="javascript" type="text/javascript"/>
<script src="../../Scripts/jquery-ui-1.7.1.custom.min.js" type="text/javascript"/>

Simple as that!

It sure looks better!

@Chuck-i accepted your solution but letting you know that you are missing the following instantiation that's needed for the datepicker.'$("#Date").datepicker();'

Basic Date Picker Lite

This is the free version of their flagship product, but it contains a date and time picker native for asp.net.
