I located in the forum the ssi call, which works well with the default calendar:
http://www.saintbarths.org/cal/calendar.pl?template=ssi.html

However my calendar path is as follows:
http://www.saintbarths.org/cal/calendar.pl?calendar=ParishMainCal

How is the ssi call made in this scenario?

Thanks

** I located the ssi call which works well with the default **

It would likely help if you'd show us what that SSI call is so we know what you're doing.

** How is the ssi call made in this scenario? **

That will depend on exactly what SSI call you're using.

Let me back up...

The template=ssi.html works for the default calendar to view an event list, but how does the template=ssi.html work for my main calendar path below?

My calendar path is as follows: http://www.saintbarths.org/cal/calendar.pl?calendar=ParishMainCal

Ok, I think I got it now. You are NOT using an SSI tag to call the SSI template (for whatever reason), you are just calling it directly and want to do so for that other calendar???

If so, you can link to the SSI template on that calendar like this:
http://www.saintbarths.org/cal/calendar.pl?calendar=ParishMainCal&template=ssi.html  
(note the &template=ssi.html)

Yes, that is initially what I wanted to do; first to confirm the event list of the calendar with the ssi_max_event.html.

I have created a temp dir with a copy of my default.asp to test with.
http://www.saintbarths.org/temp/default.asp

Now how do I bring this event list(ssi_max_event.html) into my asp page?

Thanks for your input.

It might have speed things up if you had stated that?

I have no idea, you may have to ask an ASP support person. You can see several different SSI calls at the following link: "SSI head ache !".

If all else fails, you should be able to display them in an iframe on that page.

Dan,

** If all else fails, you should be able to display them in an iframe on that page. **

The iframe idea worked, however now I have a question on the ssi_max_days.html.  The file appears to have an 'if' statement to display the message 'no events'  On the link below, my current day has no events, but the display is showing an event for tomorrow.
http://www.saintbarths.org/Boosters/Booster.asp

Is there something I have missed?

Thanks

You mean here:
http://www.saintbarths.org/cal/calendar.pl?calendar=BoosterMainCal&template=ssi_m ax_days.html

What timezone is your host's computer in? Maybe what it considers today is tomorrow to you?? Have you set the timezone offset in the administration section.

But I also see another problem. That template is suppose to display 3-days' events if you haven't defined that value otherwise. It only looks to be displaying 1 (or 2) day's events.

Any particular reason you're not just using the ssi.html template which comes with CalendarScript??

My web server is in the same time zone as I am, and I have not adjusted the timezone offset in the admin section.

** That template is suppose to display 3-days' events if you haven't defined that value otherwise. It only looks to be displaying 1 (or 2) day's events. **
Yes, I changed the parameter to only show the current day's event.

** Any particular reason you're not just using the ssi.html template which comes with CalendarScript?? **
I did not know the command line syntax to restrict the events from the default ssi.html

** My original question **
The ssi_max_days.html works fine to display a current day's event as long as an event exists on the calendar.  In the example of the link that I sent (you refined) there is no event scheduled for today, yet the calendar opts to show tomorrow's event rather than displaying "No Events"

Thanks for your patience and persistance, as a music minister with no website development experience, this project has been a challenge.

Sorry but I don't know why that would be.
