Open source html calendar widget?

Hello,

I'm looking for an open source html calendar widget that will allow  
you to associate URLs with a given date. Is there anything out there  
like this?

I found a page that described a calendar widget that was slated to be  
integrated into the jakarta datetime taglib, but it doesn't appear to  
have made it. I also found a commercial taglib that would do the  
trick if I futzed with it, but I was hoping for something less  
proprietary.

Any suggestions?

Thank You,
Troy

We (as a list) have been fairly poor in terms of marking our emails, 
compared to other Apache lists. As archives show, we hardly mark OT 
threads. Its unfortunate the email came off the way it did.

Its really a personal call, I'm happy to leave this unmarked. I did not 
see any connection to an existing (or proposed) Jakarta Taglibs (proper or 
sandbox) tag library when I marked it.

Gosh, you'd think with my 20+ years experience using email and Internet 
forums I would have figured that out.

Maybe I should have also mentioned that the DWR author has had a couple of 
requests recently for the creation of some Taglibs for rendering content as 
a result of a DWR callback.

Its a good idea to add an OT marker (if you're sure that is the case). It 
helps some of us who filter emails based on these markers in the subject. 
I'm fairly convinced here, hence the marker.

Thanks!

I'm not sure what this has to do with Taglibs  but.

I recently integrated JSCalendar 
(http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar/) with DWR (Direct Web Remoting) 
so that it produces the functionality you're looking for.   Take a look at 
the following page:

http://usda.mannlib.cornell.edu:8080/MannUsda/displayCalendar.do

It's a system still under development so you won't see results when 
clicking on most days.  Select "May" (click on the left arrow next to 
"Today" and then click on a few different days.  Yes, a database lookup is 
being performed each time a day is clicked even though the page is not 
being reloaded (that's the DWR part).

Ah!  I didn't think of that, thank you.

And sorry for the OT thread, I thought I was going to have to use a  
taglib for this.

Cheers,
Troy

You could easily modify the script as you needed.  Rip out what you needed 
into dynamically generated JavaScript via <javascript src="myscript.jsp"/>. 
Should be pretty straightforward.

Hi James,

I like the look of this, however it would be a significant  
undertaking to integrate some kind of database lookup functionality  
with this. Or have you seen an example of that using this javascript?

Thank You,
Troy
