      That sounds great and yes that’s kinda what I was looking for, the month cross over sounds good, This is how I have the default where it will only show the next 5 holidays so have the birthdays work the same way (or as near as), then past birthdays for the month drop off the list

          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.

            and if u change the css file, just hit f5 or ctrl-r

                @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.
