    That can be changed with an iframe and setting your own CSS formatting. But, that’s the easy way out. :)

      And so the mayhem commences … Next up is parsing the data returned and populating the specific boxes. Don’t no one remind me how much I detest Javascript, mkay?

          The problem I see with this is that you won’t knew whether you have something on the upcoming Sunday till it actually changes to the next week. I need to figure out something there.

            @KirAsh4 not knowing how the API works, would it be easier to populate an entire month view? That way picking the week wouldn’t be an issue.

              It’s just more real estate on the screen. Think about how you view your calendar in a regular browser and how much of the screen it takes up to view everything. Try shrinking it down and see how small you can get it before information gets hidden from you and you have to expand it again. Having the full month takes a lot of space.

              Another possibility would be to make it a “running” week, where it displays 7 days, but not specifically Sunday to Saturday, but rather ‘Today, Tomorrow, Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri’. Then tomorrow it shifts everything over to the left, and you now get ‘Sat’ appended at the end. The first day is always ‘Today’.

              It’s a bit more programming, but possible.

                @KirAsh4 for my application, that is what this project was going to be primarily for. Yes I can see the running 7 day thing working. I appreciate the help

                  Don’t get me wrong, I can see a situation where wanting the whole month displayed is desired. I’m looking at my own calendar and there is no way for me to fit all of that on the screen while also retaining other information. But I can understand if others want it. So I’m thinking, for a more broad spectrum of users, configurable options might be in order. Maybe a 2-week display, running 7-days, whole month. Or for those that have very busy days, even a daily agenda. Those are all within the scope of the API, it’s simply a matter of programming on our end.

                    Wow, that looks amazing! I’m out of town and haven’t had the chance Yet to try it on my mirror, but I’m super excited to get home and see it running. Lots of great ideas from the other commenters as well. I like the simplicity of the original events running list, but I think this weekly calendar will be great for a lot of people.

                      @idkmynameiskyle, it doesn’t exist in the wild yet. I just started working on it yesterday. It’s going to be a (long) while still before I get to anything worth releasing.
