[RESOLVED] How to fix issue in Ajax Toolkit

[FishGuy]

I have an issue with the editor control in the toolkit stripping out the + symbol, it has been mentioned when I googled it by another user.
http://ajaxcontroltoolkit.codeplex.com/workitem/26912

At the bottom is a possible solution but I dont understand how to apply this.

When I use the toolkit I just reference the dll.

Is it suggesting I download the source for the toolkit, edit the javascript and recomplie? Is this complicated?

Hello,

Yes, unfortunately, that is what would be required.

This is not impossible, but would take some work on your part to implement.

Thanks, I did achieve it as above, simply located the source solution from codeplex and downloaded. FOund the file mentioned in the linked thread for the control changed the method call as specified and recompiled. Added the new AjaxToolkit dll into my project and the fix was applied.

Not bad, though I did have to go back and download/apply to an older version of the toolkit to use as the latest version caused other issues within my project.

Ouch! Yeah, that is sometimes the case.

We are still on an older version of some controls that we use in house as well, as the new version has issues that would make it very difficult to work with our solution.
