New calendar tag is ready

Hi,

a few days ago, I announced that I was going to develop a new tag for the
datetime taglib called "calendar". The first version is ready now. It
generates a monthly calendar as an HTML table with clickable day numbers
that call JavaScript event handlers. The colors and CSS classes of all the
table elements are configurable via JSP attributes of the calendar tag.

To give you an impression of what is going on, I have attached the files for
you: the JSP source and the HTML sample output that even works off-line! The
CSS is also included.

Pleas test it and give me a feedback. If someone tells me how to get into
the CVS system,  I'll check in the code.

Yours...
Matthias

Great!

Last December I submitted a taglib that did this same thing, but used
the <PRE> tag for the HTML.

My tag had quite a bit of flexibility to it, which is perhaps why no one
cared. But anyhow, please look at

http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/~bwaters/pub/taglib/calendar-taglib.html


Perhaps we could merge these two:

<dt:calendar output="pre" />

would emit the <pre> - formatted HTML, and 

<dt:calendar output="table" />

would emit the table HTML.


Thank you for using CSS!


So.. merge them?

Hi!

I submitted such a thing - including (JavaSript) Calendar-Popup Field and
simple i18n about 6 month ago - I did not even got a response :-( - I
couldn't see the reason :-(. Hope you are more Lucky then I was :-)

Greetinx,
Chris
