Outlook calendar

D

David French

I have a calendar that works very well for me that I publish directly from
Outlook 2003 to my website.
The one issue I have with it is there is not 'Home' navigation to return to
the website.
The calendar itself has a 'Navigation triangle' to move from one month to
the next.
When I insert the first page into the page as an Inline Frame I get the
first page but the arrow being a javascript:NextMonth() will not work and it
gives me Page Cannot Be Displayed.
I am inserting it on a page so I can have the rest of my navigation bar
around it.

Anyone have a suggestion?
I like the Outlook to FrontPage functionality since I update the calendar
regularly and do not want this to be a multi-step process anymore than it is
now.

One solution, open the calendar in a new window, or pop-up window.
When the window is closed, your site will still be open.

OK Ron.
That's a good idea and I'd love to try it.
1. That button is on a Navigation Bar. There are apparently no tools to
force that to open in a new window.
2. This 'Web Page' is actually a series of pages that Outlook 2003 creates
which contain headers, footers and all sorts of really cool stuff but to
manage it seems a bit much!

Next suggestion?

Same suggestion. Call the url for the calendar itself to
open in a new window, this will do the entire frameset that
way
See http://lfd.lannonfire.com/Information/ for a sample of
how this works

The page that has the link for it you need to change the
target to new window. Or in code view, add target = "_blank"
into the <a>.

Mike

Note: in my example, the <a> has ref="_blank" instead of
target. This is because target appears to be going on its
way out, I use javascript to launch in a new window, and ref
pulls that functioning


: GREAT!
: I see how it works.
: Now...how do I MAKE it work?

OK...
We'll get this yet.
The link that I click on is a Navigation Bar.
I don't see in that box how to force it to a New Window.
It looks as if that Fire Department is using a Navigation Bar but I don't
understand how they have it working...but I see that it DOES work.

Please forgive my ignorance.

Dave
When you save the calendar from Outlook it asks you for a
file name. In my case it was calendar. Outlook saved the
calendar as a folder called calendar, and the frameset page
is called calendar.htm. On the webpage linking to
calendar.htm is where you change the target to _blank

The 'navigation bar' you see really isn't a nav bar, it is
actually a list being manipulated by css. The link farther
down on the page shows the calendar also

OK...
I have found it but it doesn't functions that way.
Here is the code I belive that is running this behavior.

_________________________

<td msopnltype="NavBody" valign="top">
<!-- MSCellType="NavBody" -->
<!--webbot bot="Navigation" S-Type="sequence" S-Orientation="horizontal"
S-Rendering="graphics" B-Include-Home="FALSE" B-Include-Up="FALSE"

Calendar</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</td>
<td valign="top">
<!-- MSCellType="ContentBody" -->
__________________________________

I have the same 'navigation bar' on numerous pages.
Would I have to find all instances of this code to make sure it works from
all pages?

David French

Well...
Here's a good one!
I can make this open any of my OTHER 'Navigation bar buttons' open in a new
window EXCEPT the Calendar one!
AAAAAGGGGHHHHHH.
This is TOO much.
To do that I right click on the page, choose Page Properties and set the
Target Frame to _blank.
If I do this on each page those Nav buttons each have the page open in a new
window.
Everyone EXCEPT the one I want to open that way!

It's no big deal and about this time I'm about to give up on it so don't
lose any sleep over it.

Dave-
You need to change the code- I use a javascript to open in a
new window, and that is what you copied- Change the
ref="_blank" to target="_blank"

<a ref="_blank"
href="Calendars/ISTraining/IStrainCalendar.htm">
should be
<a target="_blank"
href="Calendars/ISTraining/IStrainCalendar.htm">
