Why isn't my calendar showing up?

sw9 · February 25, 2010

I'm using a script that puts an interactive calendar onto a page via a style id. I can't for the life of me figure out why it's not showing up. You can see the page in action that's not working here:http://dev.retn.org/calendar.php

At the bottom of the script you can see a line which says

  
Calendar.setup(
    {
      flat         : "calendar-container", // ID of the parent element
      flatCallback : dateChanged
    }

which is referencing the style id to put it inside of.

The reason I'm scratching my head is this code is working on my live site without a problem here: http://www.retn.org/tv-schedules

It's the same code, so I don't understand why I can't get it to work on my dev site.

Thanks so much in advance!

If you need it, here's the code below:

I'm getting a syntax error for this line of code in firebug:

window.location = "http://www.retn.org/tv-schedules/?y="+y+"&m="+(m+1)+"&d="+d+"&c="+;

It's breaking the script and preventing the rest from working. The "+;" bit right at the end looks like the source of the problem.

sorry, i didn't include my php code in that which fills that line. it still doesn't work, though. still scratching my head! here's the new code:
