    Calendars on the web

    I am looking for a calendar program or script to set up calendars for my low
    income business based site. I want to put regular events and such. I want
    to make it available to most web audiences (so would have to be simple
    programming wise). Trying to find a free source that will be easier then
    hard coding a table to do the job.

    Any ideas?

    thanks,

    Suggestion: Post is a more suitable newsgroup.
    This is javascript, typically a client (=browser) language.

    WHat you need is a serverbased language, so all your dates and suchs will be
    stored permanent somewhere (database/flat file) for all visitors to see.

    Try posting this question at a serversidelangu age newsgroup.
    You might get lucky with comp.lang.php

      If you have access to a Mac, Apple's iCal is a terrific way to publish
      calendars on the web. My own is located here:

        You didn't mention which scripting language.

        Try hotscripts.com or aspin.com (asp only).

            Here's a nice selection of calendars to suit most purposes ...

              A) For a mere list of events, HTML of course suffices; but I take a
              calendar as showing a page of dates at a time, defined by a list of
              events and event-rules.

              B) It appears that you want to publish a calendar of events, for which
              javascript is reasonable.

              C) If you want to allow user-updating, then the users must be able to
              transfer data upwind; this could be done, I think, with a Web form
              submitting updates to a server process which would return a modified
              page; in this case, only date data that will be shown should be
              downloaded.

              <URL:http://www.merlyn.demo n.co.uk/js-date6.htm> has demonstration B-
              type code. It handles annual events (such as a birthday) and once-off
              events (such as a date-of-birth); and shows EU Summer Time change dates.

              It does not yet handle rules such as the Spring Holiday (first Monday of
              May) or Quadragesima (Easter-42), for which there is code on other pages
              nearby; nor Monthly/Weekly. The latter would need cancellation
              conditions; an event normally held on the last Saturday of the month is
              likely to need to be altered for December 2004.

              However, if you are looking ahead for only a limited period, it is easy
              enough to insert events covering that period.

                    No, the Mac simply has tools that make calendar creation and publication
                    simple. The iCalendar format is an open standard, and there is at least
                    a PHP module that will display them.

                      Ah ! oui ! pas mal !
                      Et où se procure t'on le pacage iCal ??
                      (ça fonctionne sur sa machine, à la maison, sur système 8.6 ?)

                      bien que 80 ko à re-charger au moindre clic soit un peu cher !

                      Fine !
                      Where to find iCal ? is it a freeWare ? working on system 8.6 ?
                      Bemol : quite expensive to download 80ko on each click !
