Dcal

Description

A calendar that uses two markups, one to create entries and other to render the calendar. You can have multiple instances in the same page, you can change the month and year dynamically for each one, you can use pagelist to select entries and extract information out of wikipages and use it inside the calendar.

Installation

Download the dcal.php file, place it inside cookbook/ folder and do a include_once("cookbook/dcal.php"); inside your local/config.php and play with it.

Syntax

dcalin is a markup expression that fills an array with information that will be displayed afterwards by dcal.

dcalin is done as a markup expression so it can be written to a page independent of dcal position, so dcalin entries written before and after the dcal markup will be showed by dcal.
