O.k., so now I have my calendar set up the way I want it.  This calendar is heavily customized (well for me at least, it took two days of work), and I've got a few more things do to.  I want to customize the SSI call or at least what is shown.  I am currently using a modified version of max_events.html.  Here's the code:

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

• ->
• ;
  $EVENTS = $DAY->{events};
  $total_events=0;
  $total_trueevents=0;
  $max_events=10;
     $time = time;
     ($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);
  %>
  <p><%FOREACH EVENTLIST%>
     <%IF EVENTS EXIST%>
     <%$total_events++;%>
     <%if($DAY->{dd} >= $mday) { %>
     <%FOREACH EVENT%>
           •
           <% $total_trueevents++;%>
                 <% if ($EVENT->{'details'}{'state'})  { %><%= $EVENT->{'details'}->{'city'} %>, <%= $EVENT->{'details'}->{'state'} %> -  <A class="cal" HREF="/cgi-bin/calendar/calender.pl?popup=0&template=event_detail.html&event_id=<%=$EVENT->{'details'}->{'id'}%>" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;" onClick="showDetails('<%=$EVENT->{'details'}->{'id'}%>');return false;"><% } %> <%= $EVENT->{'details'}->{'title'} %><% { %></A><% } %>
                 <% if($total_trueevents >= $max_events) { %>
        </dl><%
              exit();
           }%>
        <BR><%/FOREACH%>
     <%/IF%>
     <%}%>
  <%/FOREACH%></p>

  I have it set up where it will only show events with a state listed.  Since I require that, it will show all events except holidays.  It also doesn't show the dates, just the next 10 events.  They can see the date in the event view.

  What I would like to do is to have it show unique events.  See how it shows the top two events twice?  How would I modify the code above so that it doesn't repeat events?

  BTW, I did remove the 'Powered by' tag at the end of all of the pages, but I also paid the full license fee and donated to DanO's page.

Oh, I forgot to add that you can see the call in action at http://www.americanmotorcycleclub.com/test.shtml.

I can't tell you the exact code but it might be possible to set up some kind of list (maybe a hash?) of the event IDs that have been printed and use that list to negate printing of the same event twice?

Anybody up for the challenge?

I don't know how much it's worth to you but if you want to hire my services, you can contact me via email. Otherwise maybe someone else will volunteer their services?
