How can I make CalendarExtender StartDate attribute take the current date?

Question

I thought something like this

<ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender ID="TextBox1_CalendarExtender" runat="server" 
            TargetControlID="txtDatumPoaganje" Format="MM/dd/yyyy" StartDate=<%=DateTime.Now%>>

But it doesnt work. I can make something similar with JavaScript and alert message:

how to disable previous dates in CalendarExtender control through its render event?

but it's not the same.

Try SelectedDate instead of StartDate.

Also, the link below says you can't set selecteddate from the html side, instead you must do it from code-behind.

I haven't confirm this however. http://forums.asp.net/t/1293771.aspx/1

Sorry it seems like my question was stupid :) i can make the changes in the *.cs file if(!IsPostBack) extBox1_CalendarExtender.StartDate = DateTime.Now; – Filip Jan 14 '12 at 17:58
@Filip Not stupid at all. Sometimes you're in the code so far it's hard to step back at times. – user1231231412 Jan 14 '12 at 19:21

you can put this in the load page

TextBox2_CalendarExtender.StartDate = DateTime.Now.Date;

Assuming you're trying to only show dates from DateTime.Now onwards, this may help you: Disable previous Dates in ajaxToolkit CalendarExtender
