Hi Eddie,

there is a great calendar package in PEAR:
http://pear.php.net/package/Calendar

There is a good example of how to build an HTML calendar from it:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.datetime.calendar.intro-inahurry.php
(scroll down to the middle of the page)

I don't know why you want to use javascript here. I would do it this way:

- select all dates of free vacation properties of the given/current month
- put the dates from the DB result into an array
- create the calendar with the example from above and check for every day if
there is an entry for the day in your array
- if so give the table cell a specific color and/or link to page containing
detailed information
- otherwise blank the cell out or whatever

Hope this helps!

Regards, Torsten
