Greetings and thank you in advance for your answers. I am fairly new to creating controls. I have created a datepicker control which uses the jQuery datepicker. It works in most instances except within another control which utilizes a gridview. It seems that control is not being loaded since the control is only created in edit mode, but when clicked in edit mode, the control does not fire the onload or oninit event to create the datepicker. Does anyone have any advice on how to get the desired effect so that the datepicker initiates when a user clicks on the field?
