looking for PHP-based task list, calendar

curmudgeon42

I've been trying to find a good PHP-based personal information management system, akin to what a Palm Pilot gives you. Mostly, I want to be able to keep a calendar of appointments and a list of tasks.

I currently am using PHPGroupWare, but it doesn't do quite everything I want. The calendar is a bit awkward and the task list doesn't allow for subtasks.

What other options are there for these types of applications? I'm willing to code my own, but only if I can definitely determine that there is nothing already done out there that does everything I want.

Thanks,

Well not knowing exactly what features you are looking for, it makes it tough to guide you to a specific solution. Even having said that, I think you'd be better off coding your own anyhow, so you can build in the exact features you want (since you said you could code your own anyhow).

If you are leaning more toward using a pre-built solution, then you need to post back the specific features you want. Also, you may want to check out the calendar/PIM scripts at hotscripts.com as they may have what you need.

Well, for tasks I want categories, priority, subtasks which can be hidden or collapsed. I want to be able to display all tasks, or just tasks from a certain category. I want multiple options for sort order (priority, category, status, description). Also if it could have an extended description (only seen when you click on a specific task) that would be useful.

For calendar I want to be able to create appointments, recurring appointments, timed reminders, etc. There should also be an "all day" appointment type.

That's all I can think of for now but I'm sure I'm missing something.

I'm willing to look into each option. If I could just get a list of all the options that would at least be a starting point.
