Is it just me or does the MAX events SSI found on http://www.much2.com/calendarscript/index.html  just not work?  I can't get it to show anything other than the "no events" tag.

I realize the author of the sight may not be the author of the template.  But I was just curious if anyone had gotten this to work. I've searched the forums and tried every mod found on how to display X number of events and none work for me.

What "MAX events SSI" template? I don't see any there titled that.

Here is the "Max Event's" SSI template from http://www.much2.com/calendarscript/index.html.   I can't get it to work.  It just shows 'no events'

<%
&getEvents( {'duration'=>$in{duration}} );
$DAY = $Grid->{'grid'}->

• ->
• ;
  $EVENTS = $DAY->{events};
  $total_events=0;
  $total_trueevents=0;
  $max_events=3;
  $time = time;
  ($neg_pos,$hours) = ($vars{time_offset} =~ /([+-])(\d+)/);
  if ($neg_pos eq '+') {$time += (60*60 * $hours);
  }
  else {
  $time -= (60*60 * $hours);
  }
  ($mday,$month,$year) = (localtime($time))[3,4,5];
  $month = $month+1;
  $year = $year+1900;
  $datestamp = sprintf("%4.4d%2.2d%2.2d",$year,$month,$mday);
  %>
  <DL>
  <%FOREACH EVENTLIST%>
  <%IF EVENTS EXIST%>
  <%$total_events++;%>
  <%if($DAY->{dd} >= $mday) { %>
  <DT><%=$DAY->{dayname}%>, <%=$DAY->{monthname}%> <%=$DAY->{dd}%>
  <DD>
  <%FOREACH EVENT%>
  •
  <% $total_trueevents++;%>
  <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'}) { %><%= $EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'} %><% } %>
  <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'end_time'}) { %>-<%= $EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'end_time'} %><% } %>
  <% if ($EVENT->{'schedule'}->{'start_time'}) { %> : <% } %>
  <%= $EVENT->{'details'}->{'title'} %><BR>
  <% if($total_trueevents >= $max_events) {
  exit();
  }%>
  <%/FOREACH%>
  <%/IF%>
  <%}%>
  <%/FOREACH%>
  </DL>
  <%unless($total_events){%>
  <CENTER><I>No Events</I></CENTER>
  <% } %>
  <A HREF="<%=$AdminConfig->get("calendar_url")%>?calendar=<%=$Calendar%>">View Calendar</A>

do you have any events scheduled between now and oct 31? i seem to remember something about it not pulling events past end of month...

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

[diver165]

As matter of fact I don't have anything until November 9th.

I'll put a test event up and see if it shows anything.

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

[diver165]

Yes, you are correct.  It only shows X number of events within the month.  This is no good for me.

Does anyone have an SSI template that will show X number of events regardless of how far apart they are?

* What "MAX events SSI" template? *

... from the Headlines (SSI) template package.

** It only shows X number of events within the month. This is no good for me. **

It only shows X number of events *within the month* if you don't tell it how long to look for events. That's what the duration variable in the ssi.txt file is for, set it to a value where events are sure to be found.

The current month is the default for that template, the same as with the ssi.html template supplied with CalendarScript.

JFYI
