Calendar Control Behaving Badly


I have a problem with a user control containing a calendar control. It looks OK in the design view in Visual Studio 2015:

This is how it looks in design view

However, in the browser, any browser, it looks like this:

I have tried to set the width to 330px wherever I can think of, but it always seems to get the width 1084 somehow!?

Where is the problem?

Here is the code for the user control:

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="TimeKalender.ascx.cs" Inherits="Blodbanken.TimeKalender" %>

<link rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" href="StyleSheet1.css" id="style" runat="server" visible="false" />

<div class="kalender" style="width:330px;">
    <asp:Calendar ID="Calendar1"  runat="server" BackColor="White" BorderColor="Black" BorderStyle="Solid" CellSpacing="1" Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="9pt" ForeColor="Black" Height="250px" NextPrevFormat="ShortMonth" Width="100%">
        <DayHeaderStyle Font-Bold="True" Font-Size="8pt" ForeColor="#333333" Height="8pt" />
        <DayStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" />
        <NextPrevStyle Font-Bold="True" Font-Size="8pt" ForeColor="White" />
        <OtherMonthDayStyle ForeColor="#999999" />
        <SelectedDayStyle BackColor="#E60000" ForeColor="White" />
        <TitleStyle BackColor="Red" BorderStyle="None" Font-Bold="True" Font-Size="12pt" ForeColor="White" Height="12pt" />
        <TodayDayStyle BackColor="#999999" ForeColor="White" />
    </asp:Calendar>
</div>

<asp:Label ID="lblLedigeTimer" runat="server" Text="Available appointments:" Font-Bold="True"></asp:Label>
<br />

<asp:CheckBoxList ID="CheckBoxList1" runat="server">
    <asp:ListItem>08:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>09:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>10:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>11:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>12:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>13:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>14:00 </asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>15:00 </asp:ListItem>
</asp:CheckBoxList>

<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Book it!" Width="119px" />

Solution

  • Mystery solved!

    It turned out that the asp:calendar-tag translates into a bunch og table-tags. And deeply nested in there are some a-tags that were affected by the css intended for the nav-menu. enter image description here

    Thanks for your input!
