Dynamic Flash Calendar
Anyone know of a flash tutorial of a reservation calendar? A calendar that people can request dates to reserve a place and can see which dates are already booked?
Thanks,
JK

Dynamic Text Updating Calendar With Flash
I'm interested in creating a calendar in flash with all of the days of the month displayed. What I would like to do is create something where someone that doesn't know flash or html can update the calendar somehow through a regular text file or something like that and have dynamically updating text fields in the calendar that read from the text file for each date. Would anyone be able to tell me how to set this up? Even a simple example will do just fine. Thanks ahead of time!

Dynamic Calendar
Could someone point me to a tutorial on how to create tables in flash? I'm looking to create a calendar of events. Days that are populated with events would be shaded differently, and, upon click/rollover, would display the information for the event (Time, Place, etc.) on a separate part of the movie.
Like the Spark Calendar, it would automatically start on the current day. I know I'll probably need an external php file or something, but a tutorial would be nice...
Dynamic Calendar
Hi everybody...
I need some help pretty stuck with this one.... Please see attached files.
I need to display an image inside the tooltip MC that you see if you rollOver the hilited dates. this image's location is an attribute in my XML file called logo; so I need to dynamically load that image into an empty movieClip that is inside an also dynamically generated movieClip.
To see the clips calling the action, open the "Tag" MC in the library and go to frame 3 and up. the invisible buttons call the tooltip from the library inside which I ask to load the gif.
(see first frame actionson root for XML variables and functions; on line 57 I define a variable called logoLoader equivalent to the logo attribute on the current node in the XML file, and which I call inside the tooltip MC on a frame action like so:
this.onEnterFrame = function(){
loadMovie (_root.logoLoader, logo);
}
To see the tooltip MC, double click it from the library, it's called dynamically into the stage.
I also want to know if I can restrain the month sequence to a certain year (say 2003 - 2004); should I define this on the XML file or within flash?
Dynamic XML Calendar Help
Hey Everyone,
I have an event calendar generated with actionscript and populated with XML. When a date in the XML matches a date on the calendar the square turns blue, and becomes a button. Great. This works fine when i test the movie by itself, but when i load it into my main movie, the calendar loads, the XML loads, but the square does not turn blue! The site is a full flash site, and when you click "Events" the calendar loads, but the square doesn't.
This is the code for my calendar.

Dynamic Calendar
The search tab is down so I'll just have to ask...does anyone know how to make a flash calendar that can be displayed over the web which the client can add notes and events to each day (in other words so I don't have to update it every week...)
Dynamic Calendar
Hi there,
i am about to build a dynamic calendar which will look quite similar to the DateChooser component in flash.
However i am having trouble finding the DateChooser's AS code in order to customize it for my needs.
i will be using XML to load the data into the calendar.
The Calendar will be able to do the following things:
Calander events will be highlighted (different colors according to the event type e.g. sport=blue , cats=red , dogs=green)
When the user rolls over an event, a pop up window will be displayed showing the details of the event.
My Question is: "Should i keep trying to customize the DateChooser component or would i be better off making my own from scratch."
If anyone knows of a similar calendar or functionability i would love to here about it.
Thanks

Dynamic Calendar - A Long Shot But Hey See If You Can Help...
Ok...
I need to be able to produce a dynamic calendar for a website I am working on. I want a calendar that will display the dates for each month with three possible pieces of text on each day. It is these pieces of text that i want to be dynamicaly set. The three text alternatives might be 'no' 'yes' 'ok'. So for example I want to be able to enter into a txt or xml doc, or whatever server side thingy you think is best to use, that the text in the section of the calendar for the 5th of march 2003 is 'ok'. So maybe it would look like this?
5,03,2003 = ok
I cant even set up the initial calendar, not to mention getting the variables etc. Can i use the MX component scrollbar? Ohhh my head hurts.
How can I do this. Can you point me towards a tutorial that will help?
Do you even understand.....
My Flash Calendar And PHP
I've built a Flash calendar with a scene for each month and buttons for days. Right now, they're statically linked via a GET URL call to a .php file (ex: calendar.php?calendarid=1) for each day. Whenever someone enters a new event in my database, I receive an email and then manually "turn on" the link and highlight it to show that it's active. I'd like to be able to pass this data dynamically. In addition, I'd like to automatically highlight the current day as well. Anybody got any ideas for a relative newbie to actionscript, javascript, and php? I get the feeling that I'll need a combination of both to accomplish this
Calendar In Flash
Has anyone any success with doing up a calendar in flash? I've seen some in the movies section, but I don't think any of them are quite as sophisticated as I'm needing, like, say, using some javascript to pull up information for a given day when you click it... I'm still poking at one of the .fla's from movies, but I was hoping that someone might know of another good one.
Thanks!

Hey guys I am trying to find a premade Flash Calendar to use on my website and found this one on this site.

I have a few questions. First are there any other flash calanders out there like this for free. If so do they have the same sort of bigger popup window when you click on a date such as this one?
If not is there anyway i can use this one on an existing site. How would I intergrate it, size it, etc?
Lastly could anyone make a replica of this Calendar if needed?
Thx for any info guys I am very new to flash and hate to ask so many questions but just love this design.

PHP - Flash Calendar
Hi
I would like to create a event flash calendar that could communicate with PHP. I've found this component build with flash call dateChooser and I'm using it as my default calendar. The calendar should read strings that's on my PHP page for example:
<?php
// The $events array will call data from database
$events = array("2/14/2008", "2/22/2008", "2/27/2008");
$totalEvents = count($events);
foreach($events as $key => $value){
print "&$key=$value";
}
print "&totalEvents=$totalEvents";
?>
This outputs: &0=2/14/2008&1=2/22/2008&2=2/27/2008&totalEvents=3
Base on the value output by PHP, the calendar should read them and high light those days. For example: 2/14/2008 is output by PHP so the calendar should high light the 14th and if there are more events high light those days as well.
That's where I'm stocked. Anyone knows how to create such calendar please help. Any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks

Does anyone know how to make one calendar component set the date for another? I basically have two calendars in my form. One for arrival, and one for departure. they both will pop up today's date when clicked, which is great, but suppose I pick an arrival date on the one calendar, I would like the arrival calendar to talk to the departure calendar and have the same day and month and year come up that I selected on the Arrival calendar untill I change the departure date. Is this possible?
thanks,
