h,
i've just been implementing the calendar for the first time and i can across a number of issues or questions:

1. i want when an event is clicked in the day view or month view to go to a details page for the event... i've used the MM_goToURL behaviour on the event and it works but it also opens a new browser window... is there a better way of doing this?
2. on yearly view is it possible to pass details of the event to javascript functions? i wanted a tooltip on the yearly view to show the name of the event... i could only see parameters about the date...
3. on the monthly or daily view is there a way to also show the description as well as the title and date? also when i used the ##description## parameter in a javascript it displayed nothing...
4. is it possible to disable previous years in the yearly view... our client doesn't want users to get confused by clicking into the past...
5. if using right-to-left text (in hebrew for example) the title displays correctly (in both month and day view) but the time comes out backwards... the time needs to be displayed as left-to-right...
6. calendar displays incorectly in ie6 and 7 if site is rtl (right to left)... whole calendar jumps out of the page when going forward or backwards through months or years... had to redo my css so that individual content divs were rtl rather than the whole page...

i hope someone has some answers as this will iron out the last few problems i have and it needs to be online soonest

below i've included my implementation code.

cheers

 jQuery("#dmxAjaxCalendar1").dmxAjaxCalendar(
{id:"dmxAjaxCalendar1", calendar_name:"\u05D0\u05E8\u05D5\u05E2\u05D9\u05DD", width:700, allowed_display_types:[true, false, true, true], legend_position:"none", display_type:3, events_type:[{number:0, name:"all_events", color:"#000000", background_color:"#FFD700", border_color:"#FFD700"}], google_feeds:[], ajax_feeds:[{url:"calendar_ajax/calendar_get_events1.asp"}], date_display_type:1, week_start:0, link_google_events:true, use_working_hours:true, working_hours_start:9, working_hours_stop:17, onEventClick:"MM_goToURL('parent','event_detail.asp?id=##id##');return false;", onEventMouseOver:"showTooltip('dHTMLToolTip',event, '##title##[br]##start_hours##.##start_minutes## - ##stop_hours##.##stop_minutes##', '#ffff99','#000000','#000000','6000');", onEventMouseOut:"hideTooltip('dHTMLToolTip');", text_direction:"rtl"}       );
     }

Hello DOG,

Making an event clickable can be achieved in a number of ways. First is to use our Behavior Connector to attach on click event of the title of the event a certain javascript function. And I guess you have set the events to have a links and that is why you got a window opened. Uncheck the mark in UI which says "Add links" in "General options" in "Events data" tab.

On behalf of the rtl problems - this will need a bit of investigation, and I wish to thank you on that notice.

Regards,

hi,

posted this last wednesday... any response?

my main problem is that clicking on a date using the "open url" behaviour opens a pop-up as well as going to the url in the main window... how is it best to make an event clickable?

thanks for the reply... yes, de-checking "add links" worked and now i don't get the pop-up..

its a great start for this events calendar and i look forward to seeing how it can be tweaked and improved over time... good luck

cheers
