Embedded Calendar- Height
Can the height of my embedded monthly calendar be variable?

For example, during October it needs to be about 1400, but for November it only needs to be 900. I would like for it to adjust automatically. I tried changing the height to "%" instead of a fixed number, but that didn't work.

Thanks,

Dana

Re: Embedded Calendar- Height
The "fully-interactive" embedded calendar uses the IFRAME/ILAYER tags (IFRAME for Internet Explorer, ILAYER for Netscape)

Unfortunately, these tags can't "auto-size" the embedded frame for the size of the content they contain. Typically, members will increase the height setting to be big enough for the largest calendar that the frame *could* contain.

You can also set the scrolling=no part of your pasted HTML to scrolling=yes. This will let visitors scroll to see the entire calendar when it exceeds the expected height.

I recommend a combination of these strategies. Set a height big enough for your average calendar, but set scrolling=yes to handle larger-than-normal ones.

You could also use the non-interactive embedded calendar, which does auto-size, but at the loss of some functionality (specifically the ability to move forward/backward to other months)

Re: Embedded Calendar- Height
Thanks for your response and suggestion!

I adjusted the scrolling on our embedded calendar and that fixed the problem.
