Re: [PHPiCalendar-DEV] iCalendar based content management

[Chad <ch...@ch...>]

At the bottom of ical_parser.php is some commented code for 
$master_array. It shows the structure of the array from which we build 
all our pages. Really, each page we display is just a different 
manipulation of this array. If you can work with mult-dimensional 
arrays in PHP, it should be a snap for you to create your own 
application.
