I have recently become fascinated by the concept of
convention over configuration. I have always felt that components are worse than useless if they can't be configured, customised and extended. So how do I reconcille these two convictions?
My goal is to provide powerful, sophisticated, zero-configuration, drag-n-drop controls, that can be fully customized if they need to be. This is the approach I have tried to follow with my new
ASP.NET DatePicker Control.
It combines a textbox and a hidden calendar control to provide efficient date selection to both beginner and advanced users. It includes built-in validation and AJAX support. A full featured free version is available on my site. I would greatly appreciate your feedback.
