Custom Tag for Calendar

Hi everyone,

I need to integrate a Calendar of events in to a website. the events will be added/updated via admin interface. the small calendar will show up in user interface. user clicks on a date and a big calendar opens in a new page, displaying the  events. of course, user can move through previous and next months to see other posted events.

I use MS ACCESS. I can write the code myself, but I prefer buying the whole tag and save time.

I checked the CFTagStore.com, two are there, but the tag  owners don't reply. I purchased one of them and he never sent me the code.

I searched online, but no success yet. even the ones from CFDynamics are not available.

I would appreciate if anyone knows of this tag anywhere.

thanks,

CF developer

    You might try looking on RIA forge for an open-source CF based event calendar.

    How much of the functinality are you looking for out of the box?

    What version of ColdFusion are you using?

    The latest versions of ColdFusion has the <cfcalendar....> tag that would provide at least some of the functionality you are looking for.  The documentation has the details.

    I am using MX version. I have the option of version 8 as well. but as far as I know, cfcalendar just displays the calendar, not any management in background.

    I am still looking for a minimal coding.

    thanks for input.
