Layout Options

[alabamaroping]

I'm looking at using your calendar to replace my current one.

I wasn't certain about all possible layouts, but I like the mini-calendar with list option. However, the problem I would have is that my descriptions are typically a large image (scanned flyers). This would make the list look pretty nasty.

Is it possible to have a list with a brief description and have it link to a full description? Ideally, the brief description and full description would be setup at the same time anytime I'm entering an event.

You can view the event calendar at ustrc.com for a better idea of what I'm going for. I'd like something like their calendar, but adding you mini calendar at the top is a big improvement (in my opinion).

Another concern:
Typically I have several events on one day. Will your calendar get too jumbled to distinguish between one event and the next, or does it do well with multiple events on a single day?

I'm just chiming in because one thing sparked in my brain and I just had to put it down before I forgot it.

Often users want to have two level of descriptions and there was nothing that was ever suitable for them. Now, if you're willing, I'd like you to give something a try.

In the description field, add your short description as you'd want it, then right below that, create a div with a class with a name of your choosing and enter your extended description in that div. On the front page, or wherever you don't want the extended description to be shown, define the class with "display: none;". On the pages where you want to show it, don't define the class....

Give that a shot and report back - I'll try it on my own if I can find the time.
