Yep, pretty easy to do.

 

Just have it check if it's today when you output the days and if so, change the color.

and thanks for the quick reply:)

easiest thing to do is make a couple classes

<style>
.background1{
background-color: red;
}

.background2{
background-color: green;
}
</style>

 

Then like revraz said check the date and assign a style

if($date == $today){
$class = "background1";
} else {
$class = "background2";
}

 

Then put it in the html for the calendar

 

<sometag class=<? echo $class; ?>>

$cur['day'] = date('j');

$cur['month'] = date('n');

$cur['year'] = date('y');

 

That will fill it with the server's day/month/year at the moment of execution

I do it without JS... not cause I'm smart, but cause I don't know JS LOL

 

I simply use a clause in my CSS

 

if()

{color: #333;}

else

{color: #999;}

im likeing the look of the if/else one, in the brackets would i put :

if(document.write(this_date_string)=true)

?

Thanks
