Somewhere on this forum I saw a thread that concerned displaying the calendar differently. There was an example (Marc I think you did it) That showed all 12 months on the page. One of the forum members had asked about it.

Does anyone know where that thread is and can I do that to my calendar with just changing the code?

the code ?style=M4 when you add that code does it change the entire calendar? I noticed that if you use the arrows the code works from month to month BUT if you jump from Feb. to Sept or any month by clicking on the word, the look is back to the original look. Is there something I'm missing?

Also I noticed that once I added the M4 code the month of Feb. changed size is there a way I can keep the size of the calendar uniform from month to month?

The thread with the 12 month example is

http://www.localendar.com/lcf/lcforums/viewthread?thread=3521
also, the sample is at

I'm not sure about the M4 style, Marc will have to cover that one.

I had the same issue with the calendar changing size, month to month.

I ended up making the height width attributes overly large, and didn't get cutoff any more. The reason of course is that the 1st of the month doesn't always start on a Sunday, so as you move in to months with the 1st on a Wednesday, or later, you are more likely to end up with an extra row, or two!

The bad news is that if people are going to search from month to month, you must keep the height width attributes large enough to accommodate. (you end up with an extra large chunk of border on the bottom, if it is not all used.)

The good news is, if you are super concerned with the look, you can create a page for each month, like in the example, and tweak them accordingly.

Also, remember that large graphics in the calendar can expand the size of those cells, reaping havoc...or even just the regular graphics for a holiday, if you have an especially long description for an event on the same day, can increase the row hight dramatically.

I personally opted for extra border. I'm lazy like that.
