Calendar

January 30, 2005 by Carl Grint

Depending on how the design is required depends how easy this is to create yourself.

You can use a database to store Events very easily and pull them out, if you want say an Outlook calendar feel, then this becomes a little more difficult, but not impossible to write yourself, even just in Dreamweaver.

You can use DartPart to pull out all Events for a single month, and for the weekly view you can just display between a Start and End Date.

You can add in a simply admin system to allow your client to add the details, such as Date, Title, text etc, on the display page you would list the Title under the date, then link off to a Details page, passing the Event ID number to filter the page.

You can also use a simple piece of code to show events until their Date has passed, which you might find useful or not in your calendar.

If you would like some help, please feel free to contact via www.cgw3.co.uk and I would be happy to help in any way I can.

Have you checked out Ranjan's extension suite? I use it on a couple of sites, and it seems to work very well. http://www.dreamlettes.net/extensions/#CalPack

Hi Les,

Thanks for the reply, I have checked the calendar pack out but didn't feel it has all of what I needed. I'll look it over again and see if I missed something.

Carl thanks for replying,

As long as I can cutomise it, I'm not really looking for anything fancy, I'm just not sure of how to do it myself. I want to see a basic calendar styled with CSS that doesn't overwhelm the page and has partial event listings on particular days that the client can add to through a secure login. I want to be able to click on that partial description of the event and get sent to a page dynamically with only that event information and a possible photo or two to spice it up.

If you would like some help on secure login/admin section then do check out my article http://www.dmxzone.com/ShowDetail.asp?NewsId=7645 it includes a Login section. Linking each event to a Details page is very easy, you simply need a page with a Recordset which queries your table of events, filtered on the ID column by an ID passed in the URL. In your calendar view page you would simply set the title of the event and set the link to your details page, followed by ?ID= then the column from the recordset which displays the events.

If it's any use I don't mind sharing the code.

Les:

Trying to learn how to implement an ASP driven event calendar on our soccer league web site.  Saw this thread on DMXZone and wanted to follow up with you after looking at the Notley site.  Very well done.  Please let me know how to reach you if you are still willing to share the code used to develop the event calendar.  Many thanks.

I've been searching and searching for an ASP or ASP.net calendar solution (with a month view) that I could incorporate into my existing SQL Server database. As a last resort, I checked out "Ranjan's" extension called "ASP Events Calendar." It is EXACTLY what I needed! It's extemely easy! Perfect, Perfect, Perfect!
