Unfortunately, the Joomla installation is not in root so is
1. /yyy/joomla
2. the previous installation was /
3. EPC is in /calendar

It works fine for phpnuke (number 2) but the Joomla installation falters, greatly. They do share data but Joomla has no color and the navigation buttons don't work. The last thing is: April, shows up 3 times in a column.

www.freewordsofchrist.org/wfc (http://www.freewordsofchrist.org/wfc) -> Joomla
www.freewordsofchrist.org (http://www.freewordsofchrist.org) -> PHP Nuke

Any ideas?

You will need to adjust the paths in the Joomla module for your particular installation.

I adjusted the path, and that's how the calendar actually appears. I'm wondering why I get three "April 2007" on one screen and all of the colors are off. It is a CSS issue, I'm guessing, but I don't know where to look for it.

Thanks for your help.

My guess is that you've put the full URL path instead of the filesystem path.

There is three calls required to make the calendar show up properly, which would explain why you have three calendars showing up.

In your case, you will need to download /calendar/calendar.php to find out the full filesystem path. Take that path and use it in /wfc/modules/mod_escal.php.

I put the URL in instead of the filesystem path because I did not get any output using the file system path.

The Joomla installation is off a subdirectory and phpnuke is off webroot.
i.e. httpdocs/phpnuke-installation
httpdocs/wfc/joomla-installation

When I change mod-escal.php to either /httpdocs/calendar/calendar.php or /calendar/calendar.php I do not have any output. Using the full URL at least got me the triple calendars.

I may give up on using the calendar until I move Joomla to PHPNuke's installation. Any suggestions?

Those paths aren't correct. That's what you see from your FTP client but it's not actually the filesystem root. Which is why I told you to look at calendar.php which has the full path in there...

That wasn't easy.
I couldn't get the entire path unless I found the location in Joomla to tell me and it started with
/usr/.../httpdocs/calendar/calendar.php At least that is what I thought until I reread your message that told me I could find the exact path in calendar.php.

It worked though. Now I just gotta fix the printcalendar.php and I guess the problem will be about the same.

Thanks for your help.
