Anyone know how to do this? I think it would be useful. The part about Outlook is irrelevant, IMO.

Start off by redoing the existing templates so they use div's and span's instead of table elements, I guess. Hardest part will be rearranging the hierarchy of things, which is going to be the most important when getting things like multi-day events, maybe. I was thinking about that a little and I think you'd have to treat multi-week events as one event "div" per week....

Hi Jim, It's been a long time since I looked at the code base, but I think the issue is events are rendered as discrete elements, and that includes multi-day events. The current Calendar abstraction would need to be used differently so you didn't try rendering each day's events independently, I think. And to actually make it look good, you'd have to switch over to CSS instead of using tables. Not a minor change, in my opinion. Later, Wes Quoting Jim Hu <ji...@ta...>: > Anyone know how to do this?

I was wondering if we could post-process the table segment with the all-day events to join multiple cells into a colspan. My recollection is that this runs into a problem with how a series of multi-day events are tiled within the region. But yes, definitely not a minor change or I suspect someone would have submitted code to do it.

Hi Jim, I'm not sure post-processing would work, but I thought briefly about doing multi-column td's. However that won't work in the monthly view, where you don't really have that "aligned cell" structure for individual events. (Well, it might, but I think it'd look ugly.) And you'd want it to be consistent across all the different views. Moving to pure CSS actually simplifies things a great deal....
