In the previous versions of the toolkit I could place a control extender inside a view template and everything worked just fine but with today's release (10-20-2006) this appears to have broken.
I have verified this to be true with the TextBox Watermark Extender, the Drop Shadow Extender, and the Rounded Corners Extender.
As an example:
<asp:ScriptManager ID="scriptManager" runat="server" />
<asp:LoginView ID="loginView" runat="server">
<AnonymousTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<ajaxToolkit:TextBoxWatermarkExtender ID="tbw" runat="server" TargetControlID="TextBox1" WatermarkText="WaterMark" />
</AnonymousTemplate>
</asp:LoginView>
This code worked fine in the last version but in this version I do not see the watermark.
Is anyone else experiencing this? If there another way to do this?
Thanks
Sean
The fix is to add the following to your page:
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnLoad(e);
loginView.DataBind();
}
