Calendar Function

The ecmCalendar function displays a calendar that has been created in Ektron CMS400.NET. Here is the format for the event calendar custom function.

<% ecmCalendar “id”, “DisplayType” %>

Note: While you can display a month view calendar with ecmCalendar, you can also use ecmEvtCalendar to display a month view calendar. For more Information, see Event Calendar Function

The ecmCalendar function attributes are explained below.

Calendar Style Sheet

Before you insert an event Calendar into your Ektron CMS400.NET template, you should make a reference to the style sheet, \siteroot\Workarea\csslib\calendarStyles.css, in your template. This style sheet contains styles that define the Calendar.

Event Calendar Sample

Here is an example of an event Calendar in an Ektron CMS400.NET template.
