Calendar_Events

using System.Xml;
using DevExpress.Web.ASPxEditors;
using System.Drawing;

public partial class ASPxCalendar_DayRender : Page {
    XmlDocument xml;

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
        this.xml = new XmlDocument();
        this.xml.Load(MapPath("~/App_Data/CalendarNotes.xml"));
    }

    protected void ASPxCalendar_DayCellInitialize(object sender, CalendarDayCellInitializeEventArgs e) {
        if(GetNoteNodes(e.Date).Count > 0) {
            e.IsWeekend = false;
            e.NavigateUrl = string.Format("javascript:ShowNotes('{0}')", GetDateString(e.Date));
        } else {
            e.IsWeekend = true;
        }        
    }

    protected void ASPxCalendar_DayCellPrepared(object sender, CalendarDayCellPreparedEventArgs e) {
        if(GetNoteNodes(e.Date).Count > 0) {
            e.TextControl.ForeColor = Color.Black;
            e.TextControl.Font.Bold = true;
        }
    }

    string GetDateString(DateTime date) {
        return date.ToString("M/d/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
    }

    XmlNodeList GetNoteNodes(DateTime date) {
        return GetNoteNodes(GetDateString(date));
    }

    XmlNodeList GetNoteNodes(string dateString) {
        return this.xml.SelectNodes(string.Format("//Notes/Note[@Date='{0}']", dateString));
    }
