Calendar

[Riddick]

Hi Guys and girls

I need help please, I do not know if it is possible but I want to generate a html page with a calendar on it wit the whole year (2005), with an href on each date that will link me to a new page where I can input information. I s it possible to auto generate a page like this or should I do all in html and make 365 href links??

hi!
sure its possible. at the moment i have no time to give you a full working code but heres a small hint how you could start:

<?php
for ($m = 1; $m < 13; $m++) {
	echo "month " . $m . ":<br />";
	for ($d = 1; $d < 32; $d++) {
		echo "&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href='day" . $d . ".html'>day " . $d . "</a></br>";
	}
}
?>

Thanks it helped allot!! But now I have a other problem, if you look at my code you will see that I generated a years calendar in four couloms. But my spaces are out on the last row and I can get it right. And I would like to change the 1 and 2 etc. of the months to January, February etc. Thank for you help!!

hi riddick!
this is not the most straightforward solution but I think it will be ok for your calendar:

<table width="800" border="1" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1"> 
<tr><td>January</td><td>February</td><td>March</td><td>April</td></tr>
<tr>
<?php
$y = 2005;
for ($m = 1; $m < 5; $m++) {
 echo "<td valign='top'><table border='1' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='1' width='100%'><tr>";
  for ($d = 1; $d < 32; $d++) {
   if ($m == 4 && $d > 30) {
    //do nothing
   }
   else {
    if ($m == 2 && $d > 28) {
     //do nothing
    }
    else {
     echo '<td><a href="insert_booking.php?day='.$d.'&month='.$m.'&year='.$y.'">'.$d.'</a></td>';
     if ($d == 7 || $d == 14 || $d == 21 || $d == 28) {
      echo "</tr><tr>";
     }
    }
   }
  }
  echo "</tr></table></td>";
 }
?>
</tr>
</table>

Thanks LarsLai!!

Thats exactly what I needed, your my hero!!!!!

[Riddick]

I would like to push my luck one more time, here is the code I have thus far and it works perfectly, well almost perfectly.
If you paste my code you will see it’s an almost perfect calendar from Jan 2005 to Dec 2005. What I wish to do now is for day 1 of Jan must start on Saturday and as it goes on to Feb day one must start on Sunday and so forth and so forth.

Thanks for all your help, I appreciate it allot!!!

Here is the code:

<table width="770" border="1" align="center" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1">
<tr><td><div align="center">January</div></td><td><div align="center">February</div></td><td><div align="center">March</div></td><td><div align="center">April</div></td></tr>

Thanks for all your help it's perfect now. if anybody needs a Calender just give be a shout on my mail [e-mail] and I'll send it for you. The code is just to long to post.

Hi Riddick,
Just a suggestion, in future, rather than writing code like this:

<?php
bla
blablblblblblblblblbllblb
blba
alblblbllblb();la[d;sad[
?>

...try using the [ p h p ] tag as this'll make it look nicer!

<?php
bla
blablblblblblblblblbllblb
blba
alblblbllblb();la[d;sad[
?>

Just a lot easier to read. 🙂
