PHP iCalendar

Bitworking

I have been experimenting by using the Mozilla Calendar and publishing the data to the web server so I can get to the calendar from anywhere. This looks like a neat little tool for getting to the calendar from places I don’t have the Mozilla Calendar app installed. Found via Mark Pilgrim.

Hmm, this could be interesting. I can already publish calendars with WebDAV: I wonder if this will let me edit them?

<time passes> Well, I misunderstood this thing. I doesn’t allow you to manipulate .ics or webcal files, though I suppose someone could make that work.

Since I don’t run my public webserver on OS X, it’s of limited use right out of the the box. But with a little scripting and some use of samba or NFS, I could keep my calendar up to date and publicly accessible.

I have never looked at PHP before. I must not have done it right: it was too easy, even though it works and, wonder of wonders, it’s not that hard to figure what the syntax means.
