Button by each control for setting extender, task, etc.

[WarrenW]

Hi Everyone,

I'm still new to asp.net - I started by working on an existing project and it uses ajax in it which I love. When I click a textbox it has a small button on the right side of it that will show a menu with options such as Textbox Tasks, Add Extender, etc.

I am starting a new project and when I added a textbox to the design screen, I do not get that button. How do I get this turned on for my new project? I added a script manager to the screen but thats as far as I get. I tried searching but no luck. I like this option cause I can set any extenders for a control such as the calendar, etc. For datasources, I can click to set the connections, etc.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hey,

Are you sure you are adding the same type of control?

Is it possible that in the other project they have used an extended textbox that has this additional design time support?

All of the controls in the project has this button added. I just looked and I do not have ajax in my references for the new project which the other one does. I bet this is the problem.

Hey,

Check the markup (the aspx) for the control you are interested in, in both projects, it should be obvious whether or not they are the same.
