    It's nice, but having the week/month/day navigation as you have is a
    PITA. Why not just make the days clickable? Have the week/month
    navigation in a more logical position.

      Considering that majority of the work isn't yours, what precisely do you
      want critiqued?

      Aside from the problems that were pointed out in ciwas, the code clutters
      the global namespace. Reusable code like this would best be presented as
      an object, adhering to practices you'd expect for software development in
      general.

        Yeah, that's what I also said in the to-do section.

        Like above or below the calendar, you mean? I did have plain buttons for
        this purpose, but they didn't look very attractive; I may create bitmaps
        instead.
        Thanks for the comment.

          Yes. This way, perhaps the entire thing could be self-contained as
          Michael suggests.

            "<<", "<", ">", and ">>" are often used to go to previous year, previous
            month, next month, and next year, respectively; no images needed.

            Also, I would right justify (followed by " &nbsp; ") the day numbers.

            Why the minus sign before each week?

              ISO-8601 "week only of the implied year". But I admit that it's a bit
              confusing. I may change it to this other ISO-8601 format "year and week only
              in the implied century": YYWww (e.g. "04W52").
              Thanks for the reply.
