Display multiple months

keithh0427 · 05-29-2005, 10:30 PM

Is there a way to display last month, this month, and next month? Similar to working on the events page of setup.

If you reset the $mo variable before calling the listing module, it is possible. Add this

PHP Code:


			
$mo = $mo - 1;

if ($mo == 0) {

    $mo = 12;

    $yr = $yr - 1;

}

$listMonths = 3;

That should do the trick.

Thanks, ve9gra.

Just one question: in what file/module is this code added, and where? I'd be grateful for fuller info as I'm a real n00b. Ta lot.

This code would be placed in the HTML page that is calling the calendar.

Thanks.
I must be really thick. Just tried adding this text but it still shows the single month, with the text across the top in one line, asin this test:

You need to wrap it all in php

Try this:

<?php
$mo = $mo - 1;
if ($mo == 0) {
$mo = 12;
$yr = $yr - 1;
}
$listMonths = 3;
?>

If you need this month and next month, it would be:

<?php
$mo = $mo + 1;
if ($mo == 13) {
$mo = 1;
$yr = $yr + 1;
}
$listMonths = 3;
?>

Just to be safe, here's some live code that I'm using.

<?php
echo "<table><tr>";
$noNav = 1;
echo "<td align=\"center\">";
require("calendar/calendar.php");
$mo++;
if (++$mo > 12) {
$mo = 1;
$yr++;
}
echo "</td>";
echo "<td align=\"center\">";
require("calendar/calendar.php");
$mo++;
if (++$mo > 12) {
$mo = 1;
$yr++;
}
echo "</td>";
echo "<td align=\"center\">";
require("calendar/calendar.php");
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr></table>";
?>

This will display 3 months in a horizontal fashion. You can increase the distance between the months by varying the table parameters such as padding, etc.

Also, note the use of $noNav = 1;. You will need to use that to turn off the navigation beneath each calendar. Pretty messy if you don't.

Arthur,

Here's a complete .php file that I just tested.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<?php $CSS=1; require("calendar/calendar.php"); ?>
</head>

<body>
<?php $OL=1; require("calendar/calendar.php"); ?>
<?php
echo "<table cellspacing='0' cellpadding='35'><tr>";
$noNav = 1;
echo "<td align=\"center\">";
require("calendar/calendar.php");
$mo++;
if ($mo > 12) {
$mo = 1;
$yr++;
}
echo "</td>";
echo "<td align=\"center\">";
require("calendar/calendar.php");
$mo++;
if ($mo > 12) {
$mo = 1;
$yr++;
}
echo "</td>";
echo "<td align=\"center\">";
require("calendar/calendar.php");
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr></table>";
?>

Arthur,

Take a look at http://alifetimeoflove.org/calendar.php

Hopefully, that's what your looking for. The months change by three, cut can easily be setup to change by one.

So sorry Arthur... I had misunderstood your inquery. I thought you wanted to have 3 months displayed in the listing module and only the current month for the calendar.

Here's the full code to what you want to do. Please make sure you adjust the paths accordingly to your installation.

PHP Code:


			
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

<html>

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<title>Calendar</title>

<?php $CSS=1; require("calendar/calendar.php"); ?>

</head>



<body>

<?php $OL=1; require("calendar/calendar.php"); ?>

<?php

import_request_variables("gp");

if (!isset($yr)) $yr=date("Y");

if (!isset($mo)) $mo=date("n");

$lastMonth = $mo - 1;

$lastYear = $yr;

if ($lastMonth == 0) { $lastMonth = 12; $lastYear--; }

$curMonth = $mo;

$curYear = $yr;

$nextMonth = $mo + 1;

$nextYear = $yr;

if ($nextMonth == 13) { $nextMonth = 1; $nextYear++; }



echo "<table cellspacing='0' cellpadding='35'><tr>";

$noNav = 1;

echo "<td align=\"center\">";

$mo = $lastMonth;

$yr = $lastYear;

require("calendar/calendar.php");

echo "</td>";

echo "<td align=\"center\">";

$mo = $curMonth;

$yr = $curYear;

require("calendar/calendar.php");

echo "</td>";

echo "<td align=\"center\">";

$mo = $nextMonth;

$yr = $nextYear;

require("calendar/calendar.php");

echo "</td>";

echo "</tr></table>";

?>

</body>

</html>
