First I installed AjaxControlToolkit, run the “Install-Package AjaxControlToolkit” this command in the Package Manager Console. Then, I did add register AjaxControlToolkit at the top of the page and also in the web.config for the whole project. In between, I did go through some q&a like Ajax Toolkit ASP.NET (Visual Basic) Not Displaying Calendar. Unfortunately, my project still cannot integrated with AjaxControlToolkit and I got the error as below.
“Error 2 Unknown server tag ‘ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender’. C:\Users\admin\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\WebSites\testing\testing.aspx 8
“.
Thanks for reading and appreciate for any reply.
This is the message that I got from Package Manager Console and the coding attached below are testing.aspx and web.config .
PM> Install-Package AjaxControlToolkit
‘AjaxControlToolkit 4.1.51116’ already installed.
testing already has a reference to ‘AjaxControlToolkit 4.1.51116’.

The tag prefix is what you should be using to reference the controls, so you shouldn’t be using “asp” as the tag prefix.
