RE: dynamically filling a calendar
The CF date functions make this kind of stuff really, really easy. I made a calendar app a few months ago to pass the time while waiting for a contract with eCal to be signed. It ended up being far better than eCal's app, but we didn't really need a calendar in the end. If I remember, the most difficult thing was figuring out how to deal with months that start on Friday, months with 29 days, etc... which wasn't really too bad. ;) Some useful functions: CreateDate(year, month, day) FirstDayOfMonth(date) DaysInMonth(date) DateAdd(datepart, number, date) Ed -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.

RE: dynamically filling a calendar
I recently wrote a calendar application that allows Day, Week, Month, Year with events scheduled per day. The trickiest part was setting up the months to look like an actual month. That is to start your day in which table column. Like if your month starts on a Friday then the first has to show up on a Friday. There is a really easy way to achieve this, and after I figured out this part it was a cake walk:) It is the DayOfWeek function :) So say your date 10.1.00 which happens to fall on saturday, so this would return 1 which means your offset for that day is one, meaning it belongs in the first column. try it with 11.1.00 which falls on a Wednesday DayOfWeek returns 4 for this date meaning your day belongs in the 4th column. :) This avoids doing any complex logic to figure this out. Basically you can display a calendar month with only one loop with x iterations (x being the number of days in the month) which makes it rather effecient ( I then had one more inner loop to handle checking for events ) So I was pleased with the speed of the calendar I have seen some that were terribly slow :) Here is a little snippet so you guys dont maul me :P Also with this logic you can figure out how many days the end will be by figuring out the day of the week for the last day in the month. That is pretty much all of the tricky stuff to doing a calendar, year views are easy since you already have a nice tight way to display months. So as Ed said its eeasy :) Ive written equivalent stuff in C and the math can drive you insane, really really CF has some of the nicest date functions around.

Re: dynamically filling a calendar
I'd like to see it as well. tom The article will most likely appear in the December issue of Cold Fusion Developers Journal or possible the January issue depending on their size constraints. To all who have requested the code I will send it out this afternoon.

Re: dynamically filling a calendar
There is a sample calendar that Figleaf demonstrated at the September CFUG using Flash 5 and WDDX. It is at www.figleaf.com/figleafhome/cfug/cfugsep2000.zip dave At 10:24 AM 10/6/00 -0400, you wrote: Hey folks, I have a calendar(as part of a scheduling app) that I need to fill in dynamically. What I am trying to do is to allow the user to select any month in any year and have the table filled out with the correct "month view" layuot. Is there a way to compare the results of the DateFormat() function OR a variable to the position of the table cell (both row and column) so as to determine where the individual dates should be?
