I am using the following code in the default.html to change the color of the grid cell text based on the calendar the event came from.  I have modified it to work with MetaCalendar as well.

I was wondering if there was an easier way, mabey to be able to call the GRID_CELL_TEXT_COLOR for the calendar the event came from and use it there instead of hard coding the color??  

See code secment below.

** mabey to be able to call the GRID_CELL_TEXT_COLOR for the calendar the event came from **

As far as i know, those values are stores in a file for each specific calendar. It would likely mean opening up that many additional files each time a calendar page is loaded. That would creat added server load (over and above what CalendarScript already uses).

It may be possible but I don't know the code to do it.

** I was wondering if there was an easier way **

If you are familiar with CSS, you could define some CCS cl;asses keyed on each calendar's name. That way you wouldn't need the all the if/else code but instead just add the calendar name to a tag to style the text. EG.

instead of

... CLASS="gridtext"><%= EVENT FIELD(title) %></A><BR>

use something like:

... CLASS="<%= $site_cal->{$EVENT->{details}->{calendarref}} #>"><%= EVENT FIELD(title) %></A><BR>
