Web Calendar supports MS AJAX technology. MS AJAX library gives alternative ways for refreshing web browser contents without updating a whole HTML page and preventing the screen from blinking (partial refreshing). To do that, the MS AJAX gives its own postback handler that is different from standard ASP.NET callback used by the Calendar control. The calendar contains the PostbackMode property that standard value PostbackInAjax instructs that only standard postback will be sending to the server. All no supported by MS AJAX callbacks will be prohibited. You can still use standard DailyCalendar callbacks of course (PostbackMode==Custom), but then the UpdatePanel control of MS AJAX library will work incorrect. When you are using AJAX technology delivered by another company, and one requires standard postback as well, set the PostbackMode to Always value.
If you would look into a source code for this demo, click on the link.
For demonstration purposes all appointments displayed on a calendar are stored in ASP.NET session objects, so original values are restored immediately after a new session object is created.
A list of appointments and resources is intialized every time a new session is started.
