Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Sidney Chong (sidneychong) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Calendar enhancement: display of events Initial Comment: Description ----------- This enhancement causes the calendar to display prominent days (such as holidays) in a separate style. When the mouse hovers over the date, a popup tooltip describing the event is shown. Customisable options -------------------- ** Display style The display style may be configured using the following variables: - caleventdaystyle - caleventdaybackground - caleventdaytext (the following styles apply for days that happen to be today AND an event day) - caltodayeventstyle - caltodayeventbackground - caltodayeventtext The default implementation displays the day in red text with a usual (eg menu color for normal day and window color for Today) background. ** List of events The list of events is defined in a separate file in XML format, and is referenced by the variable "eventsfileurl". Note that an event may be defined as one time only or recurring. I've currently included a list of public holidays for the country Singapore (holidays.sg.xml). I will need help in preparing the list for the other countries as I'm not familiar with them. The default option is OFF. (ie eventsfileurl is null) Files affected -------------- calendar.js search.htm search.nsi holidays.sg.xml (new) Files have been checked into CVS on 2002-1-15 06:20. TODOs ----- - add listing of public holidays in other countries - add ability to define personal events - add ability to distinguish b/w different kind of events - add ability to input (persistent) events directly from search box Issues ------ (1) Public Holidays. Some holidays do not occur on the same day and month of each year but requires certain logic to compute them (eg Good Friday). Some are even dependent on the occurence of natural phenomenon. To address such holidays, the current approach is to specify the dates individually for each year. This, however, leads to the issue of updates. Until such times when this component can auto-magically updates itself, the user will have to be responsible for updating his own local copy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Shawn K.
