Using ajaxToolkit CalendarExtender on asp: label

I would like to use ajaxToolkit: CalendarExtender on the asp: Label. When I attach the CalendarExtender to the label, I get the error:

Extension controls of type 'AjaxControlToolkit.CalendarExtender' cannot propagate controls of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label'.

I hope someone knows a quick trick to allow me to display the date on a label and allow a click on that shortcut to launch / open a CalendarExtender that can target the hidden asp: TextBox ... if possible.

As stated in the error message, the calendar extender is limited by default to text box controls only.



Looking at the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit page for the calendar extender , you can use PopupButtonID

to enable a shortcut to bring up the calendar popup (you also need to add to the open text box).

If you have the source code of the AjaxControlToolkit you can edit CalendarExtender.cs and then change

[TargetControlType(typeof(TextBox))]


and set Label (or Control if you only want one calendar expander). Not sure how this will affect the overall behavior of Extender.
