		<description>Hi Christophe,
Thanks for your continuos efforts, these scripting  for CEWP are great, however I&#039;m looking for a few things:
I need a calendar view to display 3 month (quarterly) in the same view and to display only the weekends.
1- Is there a way to display only the weekends?
2- How can I make a quaterly / year view?
If you can provide me some guidance it will be great I will figure out the rest.
Thanks in advance for you help.
Kind regards,</description>

		<description>Kris: sure you can. For example it is built in v3 of the Easy Tabs which was given to the workshop participants.
The jQuery corner plugin is easy to use, just apply it to the tab row.</description>

		<description>Naresh: nothing else, it should work. You can check this:
1/ confirm that you are on MOSS (not wss), which is why you&#039;ll use WebPartWPQ2
2/ make sure your page and the original list are on the same domain (www.domain.com).</description>

		<description>Jake, we&#039;ll review different solutions, for authenticated and anonymous users. For example I have built my live demo to work for both authenticated and anonymous access.
We&#039;ll also review solutions that work across sites and site collections.</description>

		<description>Thanks Wanda. good to see you can leverage what we did in the workshop.
First, you need to set up your business rules: what exactly do you expect to happen when you go over 100%? What would be the extreme value? When do you turn yellow or red?</description>

		<description>Hi -  Loved the class and was able to use TWO of the ideas within hours after the class was over. 

I used the Gradient on one of our sites to show % complete.  My PMO asked if we could adapt this for tracking % of budget..   Well, that&#039;s good, except budgets tend go over 100%.

The PMO manager said she would be satisified if the box just shows 100%+ and a differnt (bright) color.   I&#039;d like to show the actual value (eg: 125%) in the box.

Any ideas for how to best address this?  Thanks.</description>

		<description>Christophe, 

Thanks for your prompt response!

Quick question what are the doctype and secondary schema you are using? I am thinking this is where my problem may be??? Mine is xhtmal trans/ie6

Here is the snippet right before I would change it ::
(took the first 
		xsl:with-param name=&quot;Rows&quot; select=&quot;$Rows&quot; /&gt;
		xsl:with-param name=&quot;FirstRow&quot; select=&quot;1&quot; /&gt;
		xsl:with-param name=&quot;LastRow&quot; select=&quot;$dvt_RowCount&quot; /&gt;
		
/xsl:call-template&gt;
/TABLE&gt;/td&gt;/tr&gt;
/TABLE&gt;
/xsl:otherwise&gt;

When I replace the area between xsl:call-template to the close /
I get the error...

Going back through and reading I see this::
&quot;Our last action in design mode is to select all the column headers and delete them.&quot;  ???

I think I over looked this area... what do you mean delete them? Clicking and deleting each heading?I tried through the Common Data View Tasks and it does not allow all to be deleted.</description>

		<description>Your HTML script is a real gem! 
I&#039;m having difficulty getting it right in calendars. It works just fine in Month and All Events view but raw HTML still shows up in Week and Day views.
My calculated column (displayed) uses the .... format. 
Do I need to use a different format for Week/Day views?

Thanks in advance!

John

p.s. I am using script version 2.1</description>

		<description>Christophe,
I appreciate the feedback.  Got it to work.  I broke out the calculated column into two calculated columns.    However, I may have to try another approach using workflow and a hyper link field.  Here is why...

The list in which I am trying to display the link is in datasheet view.  When in DS view, the code is displayed.  Is there a workaround for this other than the workflow option that I found here? (link and steps below)

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

What I normally do:

Create an optional hyperlink column in the list

Create a worklflow with SharePoint designer that starts on Item Created and with no conditions

In the workflow, create an &quot;Store dynamic string&quot; action and store into a new variable.

The dynamic string can then consist of your URL with lookups for any parameters you need. (Example: &quot;http://www.google.com?q=[%YourItem:YourField%], Look up in google&quot;. The comma and subsequent text makes sure it fits nicely with the Hyperlink data structure, where the latter part of the string becomes the displayed text for the link

Then add another action &quot;Set field to value&quot;, where you select the field from step 1 and for the value, the variable created in step 4.

Job done.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Christophe,<br />
I appreciate the feedback.  Got it to work.  I broke out the calculated column into two calculated columns.    However, I may have to try another approach using workflow and a hyper link field.  Here is why&#8230;</p>
<p>The list in which I am trying to display the link is in datasheet view.  When in DS view, the code is displayed.  Is there a workaround for this other than the workflow option that I found here? (link and steps below) </p>
<p>Again, a BIG thanks.</p>

		<description>SharePoint won&#039;t give you an error message, but still ID is not in the list of allowed fields in formulas.
If you don&#039;t need the &quot;open in new window&quot; part, just remove the IF from the formula.</description>

		<description>Christophe,
Strange, but I was able to reference the ID in my calculated column that creates a URL string.  My URL link needed to include a unique page to which the user should return based on Region.  It works nicely, but now I want to wrap it in a hyperlink.  I&#039;ve been trying to follow instructions but get the &quot;error in formula&quot; message.

Here is my URL output 

https://mycompany.com/Lists/Directory%20List%20%20Operations/DispFormGSO.aspx?List=e67ab1c7%2D8f74%2D4959%2Da0ef%2D7bea2e4e638a&amp;ID=202&amp;Source=https://gain.paegroup.com/Lists/Directory%20List%20%20Operations/KeyOA05.aspx

and here is my formula...

=CONCATENATE(&quot;https://mycompany.com/Lists/Directory%20List%20%20Operations/DispFormGSO.aspx?List=e67ab1c7%2D8f74%2D4959%2Da0ef%2D7bea2e4e638a&amp;ID=&quot;,ID,&quot;&amp;Source=https://gain.paegroup.com/Lists/Directory%20List%20%20Operations/&quot;,[Calc aspx page])

I&#039;ll continue banging at it.  Is it required that I have a &quot;Open in New Window&quot; column?</description>

		<description>I am getting the following result :: Unable to displat this Web Part.

I copy pasted everything and going to revert back to my original version but this is odd... I followed everything to a T.

Made my DVWP, organized it accordingly with my list items. Which came out ok... kind of bland.

Still in SPD I goto code section Ctrl+F (items above) Highlight from xml open to close and insert new code...

I did notice a pop up saying something about IE6 (In IE6 the tag  cannot contain a tag  ??

I am assuming that I didn&#039;t goto the end of the XML close /  ?</description>

		<description>Paul, I think I get your point.

The code is supposed to be placed below the Gantt view and modify it. If you place it above, then you need to delay the execution until the page is loaded (as in your above script). I prefer the former as it happens earlier in the page load process.</description>

		<description>It will take me some time to finalize v3. I&#039;ll write the script for SP 2007 exclusively, which means that I&#039;ll be able to include some improvements that were not possible in previous versions (that applied to both SP2003 and SP2007).

I&#039;ll be happy to send the work in progress to people who are willing to volunteer as testers. Just send me an e-mail with &quot;HTMLcc&quot; in the subject.</description>

		<description>Hi Christopher,
I&#039;m trying to perform a simple test of the HTML calculated columns by creating a simple list with three columns: Title, Priority and Traffic light (calculated value) exactly the same as you explained in one of your exaples but i can only see the formula displayed as text . I&#039;ve added the CEWP with the last published script but no luck. I&#039;ve copy the text into an empty HTML file and it is working ok so the code generated by the calculated column is ok.
Could it be that there is some kind of restriction made by the SP administrators?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Kind regards,</description>

		<description>Christophe,

Ok the easy tabs works great! Been following you for some time here and on the MSDN forums!

My question is this... I have articles that are say given category names.
Blogs : Arcade Games, Console Games, PC Games

I want the Blogs to roll out to show the three above. Like here in this article you wrote:
http://pathtosharepoint.wordpress.com/2009/01/15/a-drop-down-menu-the-sharepoint-way/

And still have each WebPart containing the rollouts to have a TAB across the top. 

I know I know odd... but I thought it would be nifty for a clean organizational approach. E-mail me or Post here!

Thanks again!</description>

		<description>Hey Christopher... loved the whole thing :) absolutelly brilliant! only small issue I am having is with recurrent events in the same month... it is creating duplicated DIV IDs... any idea on how I can make them unique?? 
Thinking of changing the javascript but would like to use something in the calculated formula!

Tried using the Start Time and ID fields and no luck... it captures the first instance!

Have a great day!
