I've got CalendarScript with Metacalendar and Split Recurring Event going -- and it's working great, Matt and Dan ... thanks!

I'd like to do one more customization, using a javascript to mask e-mail addresses in the pop-up detail window.

Could tell me (1) if this is possible; (2) if so, exactly where do I insert the script? and (3) if so, can I just use the call-up in the description field as is?

I was going to copy the script and the call-up into the message, but it doesn't show up. Maybe someone could tell me how to accomplish that, too?

Thanks much --
 Terry

** Could tell me (1) if this is possible **

Maybe but without seeing what you're trying to do...

** (2) if so, exactly where do I insert the script? **

Again, without seeing what you're trying to do... but the previous forum message "Break apart event title and description" may give you some ideas if needing to act on a single Event field? The key line being "if ($db->{'properties'}->{$_}->{'name'} eg "title") { "

** it doesn't show up. Maybe someone could tell me how to accomplish that, too? **

This 'Plugins' forum (and only this forum) allows posting of HTML code. Any HTML code posted here will be included into the message's HTML code and not seen by users but istead will be acted upon by the browser.

Try wrapping any HTML code you want shown in between <textarea> ... </textarea> tags or converting all HTML < and > tags to their HTML entities (&lt; and &gt; respectively).

Thanks, DanO --

Here's the code (substituting the > and < that I use to mask e-mail addresses on the site:

----------------

<script type="text/javascript"><!--

function ShowEmail(address,userdomain,tld)
{
   var atsign = '@';
   var dot = '.';
   document.write('<a href=mailto:' + address + atsign + userdomain + dot + tld + '>');
   document.write(address + atsign + userdomain + dot + tld + '</a>');
}
// --></script>

------------------

and here's the code that creates the clickable e-mail address on the page itself:

------------------

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" name="ShowEmail"> ShowEmail ('office', 'firstuustlouis', 'org');</script>

------------------

Does this give you enough information to be able to answer my original questions 1, 2, and 3?

Many thanks,
 Terry

** (1) if this is possible **

Probably.

** (2) if so, exactly where do I insert the script?  **

The ShowEmail JavaScript function would usually go between the <head> and </head> tags on the page using the code. The rest of the code would usually go where you want the link to appear on the page.

You would have to do some Perl coding in the template which displays the email address to split up a standard email address (office@firstuustlouis.org)into the individual parts ('office', 'firstuustlouis', 'org') needed for the JS function

** 3) if so, can I just use the call-up in the description field as is? **

No, you can not just add that code to an event database's record. To use it will require Perl coding of the template it is being used on.

Thanks, DanO --

It helps to know what *is* and is not possible. Now I have an idea about how to get going with it, at least.
