stublackett Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Hi, I'm creating a school e-Learning Database for my project at University and what I'm trying to do is create a Dynamic Calendar Which updates with MySQL Information The MySQL Table will be called Events and will have a Date stamp on it What I'd like is a nice Dynamic Calendar that loads the relevant Events into the calendar and allows you to flick forward a month and back a month, As well as add events and modify events I've had a hunt around the Internet and couldnt find much Just wondering if anyone has any code they'd like to share or if they can point me in the direction of a really good tutorial to help me to get going Cheers Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/95826-dynamic-calendar/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 You can use this tutorial to build the calendar itself, then edit it to have it work with a DB to store entries. http://php.about.com/od/finishedphp1/ss/php_calendar.htm Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/95826-dynamic-calendar/#findComment-490566 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stublackett Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 Cheers for that Revraz What I'm hoping to do is, Manipulate that calendar so that you can browse through the Months Next I then need to work out how you get the data from the events table into the darn thing ??? ???

revraz Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Yep, I was in the same situation a few months back and I ended up just coding my own system for it. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/95826-dynamic-calendar/#findComment-490621 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stublackett Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 How did you go about doing it? I'm trying to get the links to month previous and month next to work first Then I reckon I should be ok Its just echo'ing some SQL SELECT Queries which I dont think is going to be too difficult, Its just manipulating the calendar to go forward and backward one Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/95826-dynamic-calendar/#findComment-490659 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stublackett Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Sorry to bump this up Has anyone done anything similar before? I've got a Javascripted Calendar setup but, Have no idea how to resize it or anything Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/95826-dynamic-calendar/#findComment-491358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 What I did was just add two pulldowns, one for the month, one for the year with a GO button. So you can pick where you want to go and it defaults to the current month/year. What you can do is have it read the current month/year and have a Previous and Next button that links to +1 and -1 of that month. You'll have to do some logic to see if its Jan or Dec though to switch years correctly as well.
