Re: [htmltmpl] event calendar code

Why reinvent the wheel? Sure, HTML::Template is a fantastic module and is q=
uite
versatile, but coding up an accurate calendar is by no means a simple task.=
=20
I recently discovered HTML::CalendarMonthSimple and found it to be extremel=
y
useful and easy to use. Combine it with HTML::Template and you have somethi=
ng
good going there (this is untested code):
cal.pl
------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w=20
use HTML::CalendarMonthSimple;
use HTML::Template;
my $template =3D HTML::Template->new(filename =3D> 'cal.html');
my $cal =3D new HTML::CalendarMonthSimple('month' =3D> '2', 'year' =3D> '20=
04');
# Format the calendar
$cal->width("100%");
$cal->border(1);
$cal->bgcolor("#006633");
# Other calendar formatting is available, read perldoc for more info
# Set some content in the calendar
$cal->addcontent(2, "Groundhog Day!")
$cal->addcontent(14, "Valentine's Day!")
$template->param(CALENDAR =3D> $cal->as_HTML);
print "Content-Type: text/html\r\\r\n");
print $template->output;
cal.html
--------
<HTML>
<BODY>
<TMPL_VAR NAME=3DCALENDAR>
</BODY>
</HTML>
It doesn't get much simpler than that. Supply your own month/year to
HTML::CalendarMonthSimple and you can do just about anything.
Additionally, HTML::CalendarMonthSimple has the ability to place HTML, link=
s
and other text in each day of the calendar ($cal->addcontent), read the doc=
s
for more information. It's quite easy.
