      Installed and working :-) Thanks for looking at this for me!

      I am going to play with the CSS and change some of the colours a bit. I did notice the following . .

      • If birthdays are shared date, then the second/third entry is in bold (see screen shot Aug 12th)

      • when you specify number of entires it adds additional, I specified 5, but 6 are showing

      • is it possible to have date aligned right and keep age after the name “doogyrev Birthday [45] Oct 1st”

      • where do I change font to not be all uppercase?

        @doogy_rev all the stuff is in css.

        body has a transform uppercase
        this is built as a table.

            @doogy_rev no problem…
            this last with the date next to the age, they are in teh same table cell, so I might have to make another column

            I didn’t do the css for this.

              I figured they were in the same cell since the colours are linked, but that’s beyond my feeble abilities …haha

              This is where I am at, going to make some new icons to match the default, I found the one used, so just need to change the colours.

              how do I change the cell height? I removed the existing icon and the cell height stayed the same? even changing the vertical height in the css made no difference. Also I assume the “Aug 12th” double entry’s are in the same cell, is it possible to put them in individual?

                @doogy_rev yeh, two on the same day, should only have the date once…

                for width I would look at google table cell width via css.

                    Unless I have done something dumb (which is entirely possible) this is whatI get, Count +1 seems to work (I am 1 entry less) but double date just removed the date not adding entry to a new table line.

                      @doogy_rev correct, the second person on the same birthday doesn’t get the date.

                        @doogy_rev does this look better…age and date split into separate columns

                        names in one column,
                        age in next
                        and date in next (only if dateformat is specified)

                        no changes to css
