Calendar control ... VB vs ASP

[HiKsFiles]

Hi guys,

There exist in Visual Interdev's tool box, ActiveX controls section, a Calendar control. In VB, it's possible to initially display this control as a list box. When a user clicks on the arrow to display the information contained in the list box, the actual calendar control is then displayed allowing the user to select a date.

I've been trying to manipulate the properties of Visual Interdev's calendar control to make it behave in this manner without success.

One of it's properties, the "display" property, has the following set of values:
none
block
inline
list-item.

I expected the calendar control visual representation to change according to the value set for this property, but it simply doesn't work. It still shows as a regular calendar control when displayed in the web browser.

Could it be that this feature is only implemented for Netscape browsers? I would doubt that since VI is a Microsoft product and, even though not all of their products are compatible with one another, this should work.

My question being the following: What am I doing wrong or what am I simply not doing that would make my calendar control to show as a regular list box "containing" a calendar control once expanded?

Thanx for your time!

This object would not work in Netscape because for one when you insert the Calendar control into the page, you are using the <OBJECT> tag which is not supported in Netscape. You would need to use the <EMBED> tag for Netscape.
