I would like to have 2 calendars; A normal one and a birthday calendar.When people select the birthday calendar and they click add event they only would have to fill in 2 fields (Name and date of birthday). The script should know it is a recuring event.
Unfortunately I am not a programmer, so I hope someone can help me with a plugin.

Let me know if you have any problems or questions.
I installed the plugin and it showed up in the admin screen.I added a birthday and everything seemed to work just fine.After aproving the pending event I went to the calendar to see if it showed up. Unfortunately it did not.I checked the events.txt file and it is in there.

Do you have an idea what can be the problem?

Is there a schedule for it in the schedule.txt file?
I just tested my own installation and found it wasn't writing to the schedule.txt file due to 1 wrong line in the command_add_birthday.pl file which was a hold over from an earlier copy.
I have corrected that line and updated the plug-in zip file. I'll send you a download link shortly to the updated file. You really only need to upload that one command_add_birthday.pl file to make your existing plug-in work, all the other files are the same.
Sorry for the trouble.

I actually sent the link before I posted the above message. You should have gotten it by now. It was sent to the same address that is registered with the PayPal account you used originally. Did you check that email box?
I replied at my work, I got the email allright.
Tnx,Age
Is it somehow possible not to use the plugin with the default calendar, but with only the birtday calendar? And is it possible to show only the Name and the date, so not the Comment field?

If you're able to turn off or delete that field using the Customize Event Details administration function for that calendar, yes. The plug-in will show whatever fields you'd defined to be displayed in the "Add" event form for that calendar.
** Is it somehow possible not to use the plugin with the default calendar **
I don't know any way to disable that menu choice depending on calendar, no.

You could however remove that menu choice altogether by removing the command_list.txt file from the plug-ins directory then disabling and enabling it again. You could then display a link to that template directly in the main calendar menus but conditionally upon which calendar is being viewed at the time.
