Hi!

I need to code a dynamic calendar for a website. What I am looking to do is have a calendar made out of HTML and then for each square/date I would like that to be a link. When clicked, I want some text to pop to the right of the calendar that shows that days events.
I have thought of iframes but they aren't Netscape friendly.
I have thought of having text be inserted into a textbox, but that isn't "pretty" enough.
Does anyone have any ideas or know where I could go for a script?

Thanks for any help!

For truly dynamic solution you need to start with the server side that is responsible for events entry and storage. Then think about how to present them. If there are many events you would need to implement server queries as user browses through the calendar...

You might also want to check out ca_redwards' calendar in the "post a javascript" section... you could implement that with some other script, and voila!

Email me if you need help integrating my fully-navigable cross-browser pop-up calendar with your own web application...

Originally, I developed this calendar because I wanted an intuitive and convenient way for users to enter valid dates. To keep it friendly, I allow the user to select year, month and day in any order, and rebuild its internal date accordingly. And it is implemented in under 4K of JavaScript!
