Easy PHP Calendar - View Single Post - I'd Like to show Past Events in List Mode

Hi Guys,

My site uses phpcalendar to show the football calendar for the 2005/2006 season. As each game ends, I update the event to show the score/scorers. What I'm ideally looking for is a way of displaying the full season. I'm familiar with all the options in List Mode, but ALL seem to only give the option of showing events from TODAY onwards, or THIS MONTH onwards.

This, in my opinion is an unnecessary limitation (assuming I've not missed something obvious). What I'd like to do is display 13 months FROM JULY 2005!! Not from current month. This means that users of the calender will be able to see all fixtures/results for the entire season, not only those in current and future months.

Before I make a feature request, have I missed something obvious? I've looked pretty deep but it seems to me that I'd need to change code that I don't have access to in order to fulfill this requirement.

A simple fix for this would be to include a variable in List Mode called $startDate which, if set, would determine the date to start displaying events from. If $startDate is NOT set, the current date/month/year could be used as it presently does.

Any thoughts anyone?

Thanks

Ian
