Event Calendar

[techissue2008]

Dear Sir

I would like to ask which programming language is mostly suitable to create the calendar like those at Forex Signals from the Leading Forex Alerts Provider - Official Homepage
It shows the date with image icons and the numbers of data. Also, there is a mouse over dialog box to show the date. I saw it was just a html code, but not involve any js or cgi program. May I ask how can it be done if I want to do it with DB? Does it any reference source code?

Regards

I'm thinking JavaScript and PHP. Hard to tell by looking at the source code but I'm sure that it is Javascript.

Run a google search. There'll probably be plenty of ready-made scripts for you to use, without having to design one yourself. You could still tweak the code to suit your needs, though.

Prewritten scripts are great. I've tried to edit some before but they just come out worse than before.

They're presumably not designed to be tampered with...

It's best not to tamper with pre-written scripts cause you don't really know how their designed to work.

And in most cases, they're designed awfully... but if they aren't, the problem is you don't know how they work, so you can't properly integrate them. Know what i mean?

I always write my own scripts.

It's hard to integrate pre-written scripts into your scripts cause you don't know how they work.

The only one that I know of that is designed to integrate easily is phpBB.

I write my own scripts also, so I know how they work in every way and it's easier to integrate them into other scripts.
