Event Calendar

Friday October 31, 2008
Display acalendar with important events marked using JavaScript

An event calendar works best when you perform a server side lookup to retrieve the events to display for a particular date however not everyone has access to set up the necessary server side processing to return the event data. This pure JavaScript event calendar sidesteps that issue by storing all of the events that can be displayed within an array with the script itself. This will make for slower loading times for the page displaying the event calendar but avoids the need for server side lookups.
