I'd like Monday to be the first day of the week. What would I have to change in order to achieve this?

Thanks for your help!

I think some general tips on how to get this going with a database would be very useful as the article does not really have much info on this.

Cheers,
Henry

Hi,

Currently I'm using PHP version 4.06.
Q: What changes I have to make to use this script?
[...since this script assumes using PHP version 4.1]

Thankx in advance,
Arthur

This is a wonderful script and I'll give 2 thumbs up for it. Currently I'm trying to get it work with mysql =).

One minor issue is that when I use it to scroll to Feburary, it states March on top. Hmm... I wonder whats the problem..

What I can't figgure out is what goes in the cal_events.text file? I can't seem to get it to work no matter what.

Depending on whether the article was written with "register_globals" being off, you may have to make use of the superglobal arrays (ie: $_POST[] and $_GET[]) when passing variables from page to page...

If you have trouble, let me know...

I couldn't get it to work either. Kept getting error creating text file until I edited the text file and put something in it...

I have months skipping and left out. February never comes up. IS there a fix for this?

I'm trying to figure out how to make this calendar work, but can't...

I've uploaded the cal.php file to my webserver, created a cal_events.txt file (changed "define("EVENT_FILE", "cal_events.text");" to "define("EVENT_FILE", "cal_events.txt");" 'cause i wasn't sure if the file extension was actually supposed to be .text or was typo for .txt).

When I point my browser to the cal.php file, i get the error msg: "ERROR: Couldn't create events file."

Any suggestions on how to fix?

thanks,
gs

I got mine to work. I kept the text file as .text extension
It seemed to behave better that way. Make sure whatever directory you have the files in has the ability to write to it. There's not much else you can do. It should work.

I would also like to have the source code. When I try the link below, it does not take me to a specific article?

thanks

Hi Boweger,

When we made the transition over to our new CMS, the article support files were not properly added. We're looking into this, and will have the problem resolved shortly.

In the meantime, if anybody has the support file, please let boweger know.


Thanks!

I could also use the source code. I'm stumped on adding new events.

Thanks,

I see no link whatsoever at the end of this article for the support documentation. Can anyone please point me to it.

I have been looking for this kind of script for a long time,
and this would fit to my needs perfectly, but i can't get it
work. So is that support file found yet?

Thanks beforehand.
