                  does not work for me. complete getDom and your createEl :

                      createEl(type, id, class, parent){
                  	var el = document.createElement(type);

                  	parent.addChild(el);
                  	return el;

                              the classes are not addressed :
                              image
                              … without header and footer.
                              why the classes are null ?

                                @Perlchamp sorry, typo

                                  i set the classes in uppercase, allthough in the css-file. but the classes are not adressed.
                                  by the way. maybe there is a problem with TWO cells in a row, because the daynumbers are OVER the names. if you look at the picture i send before (not the last post), than you can see, that the daynumbers are in ONE row with the names …

                                    @Perlchamp well, part of the problem is the ID of the cells is the same for each row… removing id and class (which I don’t have)
                                    works

                                    cells don’t NEED ids… but if u wanted, you would have to create a counter to append each loop to make the ids unique

                                    new createEl which does text value too

                                    	createEl : function (type, id, className, parent, value){
                                    
                                    		var el= document.createElement(type)
                                    		if(id)
                                    			el.id=id
                                    		if(className)
                                    			el.className=className
                                    		if(parent)
                                    			parent.appendChild(el)
                                    		if(value)
                                    			el.appendChild(document.createTextNode(value))
                                    		return el

                                    			this.createEl("th",null,className, header,columnName)
                                    		}
                                    		parent.appendChild(header)

                                      ok, i’ve seen, the header function … uff, all is placed right (code).
                                      i don’t see the day of birth. the first cell is still the problem :-(

                                          i have a calendar OVER the birthdaylist, so i DON#T need the month in the first cell. the FIRST cell has a calendar sheet as background-image, THOUGH i DON’T need the leading null of the day of birth. should be:
                                          5 Sam 69
                                          Mary 12

                                          …
                                          did you seen the images i did send ?
                                          and, of course, people with the same day of birth without day of birth
