BlogCalendar Server Control

The BlogCalendar server control displays a calendar on a Web page and associates it with a blog. Days with blog posts are highlighted on the calendar.

You can use a BlogCalendar server control with a BlogEntries server control to display blog posts for a given day.

The following table explains the properties of the BlogCalendar control.

Note: The following table only lists Ektron-specific properties. It does not describe native .NET properties such as font, height, width and border style. For documentation of these properties, see Visual Studio help.
