NYCPHP Meetup

[Paul McGrane]

Jon:

I recently found the gCalendar component on the Joomla Extensions site (I
think).  It seems to work pretty good (after you figure out which code to
add for the calendar) and supports multiple calendars on a single Joomla
site.

Here is a link to the components website:

http://gcalendar.laoneo.net

Paul

P.S. feel free to drop me a line (off list) and I will dig through the site
I added this to and get the right "formula" for the code to add for each
calander.
