I have just started with mojoportal, so please accept my apologies if this question has been asked before.  I'm having a problem getting data back from a postback, and I need some help with it. I have MojoPortal 2.3.2.9 running on Windows Server 2008R2 with SQL Server.

Basically, what is happening is that I have built a custom control and simply added a calendar to it.  It isn't a Mojo-Calendar, just a simple asp.net one.  On selecting a date in the calendar and then clicking the the previous or next buttons in the calendar, the date doesn't remain selected.  Take the example of December 2009. The default calendar right now displays from November 29th to January 9th (don't ask me why there's an extra week in there).  If you click on January 7th and then click the "Next" symbol to display the next month, you would expect January 7th to still be selected.  This is how it works in as aspx page, and in an ascx page embedded in as aspx page.

However, that isn't what I am observing right now in mojoportal.  Every click after the date selection renders that date selection invalid, and sets the selected date to 01/01/0001. So, on selecting January 7th and then the next month button, I am seeing no date selected. The code I'm using to handle this is just the asp.net calendar control dropped into the HelloMojoSiteModule.ascx control with this code hooked up to the button : 

TextBox1.Text = "Date Selected is " + objCal.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString();

So, apologies for the long winded opening, but my question is this:  Is there something strange going on with the viewstate in mojoportal, or is there something fundamental that I'm missing in Asp.net?

ViewState was disabled, so I enabled it in the page load event and all is well now.  Thanks very much for the help with this Joe, it looks like I was beating my head against a brick wall all day for something incredibly... simple.

Might I be so bold as to suggest that you put something in the developer documentation to note the settings you have used which differ from what an asp.net developer would expect to find?

Thanks once again :-)
