Question

Hi i am studying asp.net webforms and i am now creating usercontrols and trying to use ajaxtoolkit.

On my user Control i copy this code from Ajax-MessageBox Dotnetgurus

    <asp:Button ID="btnD" runat="server" Text="" Style="display: none" Width="0" Height="0" /> 
<AjaxControls:ModalPopupExtender ID="mpeMsg" runat="server" TargetControlID="btnD"
            PopupControlID="pnlMsg" PopupDragHandleControlID="pnlMsgHD" BackgroundCssClass="mpBg"
            DropShadow="true" OkControlID="btnOK">
        </AjaxControls:ModalPopupExtender>

and i want to add Modalpopupextender in it but when i drag it to my btnD an error message box shows.

The operation could not be completed. Invalid FORMATETC structure 
Warning 1   Generation of designer file failed: Unknown server tag 'AjaxControls:ModalPopupExtender'.

There is no > symbol also when i drag new button on the form because of that i cant add extender.

Thanks in Regards
