HTML Calendar - Instructions

HTML Calendar (abbreviated hcal) is a CGI-based application for viewing calendars in a nicely-formatted form. The functionality of this is essentially equivalent to that of the UNIXTM command cal. There is indeed a CGI-based calendar application usually available with httpd distributions. Why hcal then? Hmmm... Grrr..., okay, if we have to support the existence and usability of hcal, we argue that hcal outputs are much neater as compared to those of calendar. More specifically, calendar outputs preformatted text, whereas hcal outputs colorful html tables. Whether this is a sufficient reason for you to justify further browsing from this page is, of course, your choice. I would rather insist: have a look at it before taking a decision.

How to use

It's almost obvious. Click on one of the four buttons in the upper frame. The button Show calendar shows the calendar corresponding to the Year, Month and Date selected. The year must be between 1 and 9999 (both inclusive). The Date field is optional. A value of 0 or a blank value implies ``all days'' in the year or month chosen. Pressing the other three buttons displays exactly what is written on them.
