Adam · Jul 18, 2004

When you hold the shift key and click the next month link the Calendar control fails.

Thanks Alvin,
This is also true for any link on the calendar control.. Holding the shift and clicking any link, including the dates

i wonder, if that shift click tries to open in new window. i can't open a
javascrip: link correctly by clicking on anything.

It is actually more than just javascript: links.. It is ANY hyperlink that
will cause this problem.
I am starting to think it is an IE problem, rather than Calendar control's.
I tried to regenerate it in Netscape and couldn't! Although Netscape has a
different problem on general links.
Any of you IE guys out there.. if it is a feature of IE to spawn new windows
when holding a shift key then it is bad news for postback-ers

I managed to suppress this behaviour using a client side script..
Here is the code:

<HEAD>
<script language="jscript">
function IgnoreShift()
{
if (window.event.shiftKey ||
window.event.ctrlKey ||
window.event.altKey)
{
window.event.returnValue = false;
}

else window.event.returnValue = true;
}

</script>
</HEAD>

<body onclick="IgnoreShift()">
...
...

</body>

cheers,
