This should open your calendar software and create a remote calendar link.","MS Outlook Users<br><br>If you're looking for a way to convert Outlook data to iCal, you can download our free iCalConversion Program.","If you do not have a webcal protocol handler installed (it does nothing when you click on the link), copy the http:// link onto the clipboard and paste it into your calendar software.","By default, the iCal export routine will follow the calendar's setting of whether to include rollup calendars as part of the exported calendar. If you do not want events from included calendars to be displayed, append ?rollup=0 to the URL.","If your calendar requires a login or the calendar you want to subscribe to is not publicly visible, you can still subscribe to the iCal data from other programs. To do this, add ?username=youruser&amp;password=yourpassword to the URL. For example:","https://www.mhsoftware.com/caldemo/iCal/calendar_id/22.ics?username=demo&amp;password=demo","If you're doing this, you should use SSL for your request.

","Version 3.06","Last Weekday does not work.","Version 2.05","Last Weekday does not work.","The mere presence of an RDATE entry can cause iCal to terminate with an error.","First Weekday does not work.","KOrganizer (4.1.0) ","KOrganizer 3.x doesn't handle time zones correctly. Unless all events are in the same time zone, times will be wrong. This is certain to happen because Connect Daily exports one time events in GMT.

This can cause problems with recurring event calculations.","Microsoft Outlook<br>(2000-2003)","There are two methods of importing events into Outlook.

If you have a few wide events, this can make things fit better.","Adjust the margins of your page. In FireFox and Internet Explorer, choose FILE | PAGE SETUP and reduce the margins.","Use FireFox or Internet Explorer 7 for printing. They have the capability to shrink a page to fit. You can download FireFox for free from mozilla.com. You can download IE 7 from Microsoft.com.","If you don't have events on weekends, set the option in the Connect Daily configuration to hide Saturday and Sunday. The option is located in the SYSTEM | CONFIGURATION | APPEARANCE screen.","The default style sheet makes the column widths of each day the same. If you have a few events that are very wide, all on the same day or days of the week, you can change the style sheet to let each day's column auto-size. To do this, remove the &quot;width:&quot; line from the style definition for TD.MHVCDayCell and TD.MHVCTodayCell.","Adjust the printing style sheet used by Connect Daily. You can change the font sizes used for printing by editing this file. The default print size for event titles is 6 points. This is a fairly small size and few people will want to make it smaller. The default print style sheet is css/print.css.

","Example: A customer had events in their calendar where the title was 22 characters wide, and the event was present on each of 7 days. The number of characters present was 154 characters.

They assume you have a basic understanding of security and cryptography principals.","If you use the MD5 Authenticator, then passwords are stored in the database as a hash. Anyone who can obtain access to the database containing the passwords could conceivably determine the User account password by using a dictionary of hashed passwords. The way this works is the bad guy has a dictionary that contains &quot;ABC&quot; in the dictionary; he has the pre-computed hash of &quot;ABC&quot; which translates to 13232312312312312aa. When the bad guy gets a database with a hashed password of 13232312312312312aa he finds that hash in his dictionary and then reads across to see the password is &quot;ABC&quot; and can now login. Good password selection can mitigate this risk.","Passwords sent to the system for authentication are hashed with a seed value. To pickup passwords on the network, the attacker would have to generate a dictionary using the exact seed value. This makes dictionary generation computationally difficult but not impossible. In other words to perform a dictionary attack of network traffic, the hacker would have to create a dictionary of hashed passwords using the seed value as part of the hashed password. Since the seed changes on every login, it would be difficult.","The seed used is the system clock time and the system verifies that not more than 30 minutes have elapsed since the seed's creation. This means that a User cannot access the system using a replay attack after 30 minutes have elapsed.","Passwords are sent as plain text when the User uses the change password screen.","If you still have concerns about security, then we recommend that you use the MD5Sum or LDAP Authenticator in conjunction with an SSL certificate.","Implementation Notes on MD5 Authenticator",

Page[175]=new Array("Here are some answers to the questions people most commonly ask before purchasing Connect Daily. Click on the question to display the answer.","How do I choose the right calendar package for my needs?","Here are some examples and some guidance on how to pick the right number of calendars for your organization. The simplest answer is that you need to purchase one calendar for each unique VIEW you want to create.","For example, you have a company with 9 departments. You would like to be able to view each department by itself or view the company as a whole. You can do this one of two ways. You can purchase a 10-calendar license and create a calendar for each department and a rollup or combined calendar for viewing the whole company. The other way you could do this is to use use one calendar and create an Event Type for each department. You could then view the calendar by Event Type to show a specific department or you could view by calendar to see all events together.","The trade-off is cost versus flexibility. Fewer calendars means a lower license fee but at the cost of being able to view your events in different ways. Here's a comparison of the two methods.","Method","Single Calendar with sub-views created by using Event Types","Advantages","Lower cost","Little or no security configuration required","Disadvantages","If any events are visible to the public, ALL events are visible. This is because security is controlled at the calendar level.","Inflexible rollup capability. The views will be either ALL events or ONE category. For example, you have a college calendar with theater, boys sports, and girls sports. You can view ALL events or you can view theater, boys sports, or girls sports individually. But, you cannot create a SPORTS rollup calendar that would display boys and girls sports combined.","Approval Limitations. Approvals are set at the calendar level. With one calendar, an approver could approve any event added to the calendar. Using the college example above and multiple calendars, you could have an Approver for each of the distinct areas.","Sync program does not allow selection of events by Event Type. Using the company/department example, you couldn't download all events for one department by themselves.","Setup and Teardown Events can't be used.","If you're using Event Type for department, then you can't use them for other things. For example, you couldn't assign training as an Event Type and view all training events in the company.","Method","Multiple Calendars","Advantages","Permissions can be used to limit visibility of some calendars. You can have calendars visible to some Users and not visible to others.  You can have some calendars the public can see, while other calendars would only be visible to people with logins.","Approvers can be set for each calendar.","Flexible rollup calendar definition. You can group any set of calendars together for a combined view. You can also create multi-level combined views. For example, you could have a calendar for each state that rolls into a calendar for each region. You can also have a national calendar that includes all states.","Control over individual event rollup.  For example, the Accounting department is having a picnic. They want it on their calendar but not the corporate calendar. Accounting can set the privacy on the picnic to not roll the event up into the Everything calendar.","You can create setup and teardown events.  For example, you're having an event in the Gym from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM but the Gym needs to be free for setup 1 hour before and 1 hour afterwards for teardown. You can create a setup and teardown event not visible to the general public that would mark the gym as used for that extra period. Additionally, you can put detailed instructions on how to setup the gym for the event on the setup and teardown event. Using security, you can hide these setup and teardown events so they aren't visible to the public.","Sync program can pick specific calendars for download.","Event Type can be the actual type of the event, like training.

You can work around this by setting a configuration entry &quot;charset=ISO-8859-1&quot; in your configuration.properties file.

","Rich Text Editor Questions","Connect Daily allows you to use a Rich Text editor to create the long description for events. You can also use the Rich Text Editor for creating a custom header that is displayed when you are logged in. The rich text editor is the Dojo/Dijit Editor, available as part of the Dojo Toolkit available from http://www.dojotoolkit.org/.","Features","The editor allows you to format text, including bold, italic, underline, text color, text background color, etc. You can also insert links and images. Finally, you can control the text alignment and insert numbered and simple lists. As you move your mouse over the icons in the editor toolbar a tooltip will be displayed. These tooltips explain the function of the icon.","Compatibility","The editor works by creating a window, and telling the browser to put that window into design mode. To a very large degree, the behavior of the window is dependent on the browser. For example, we've seen problems copying and pasting when using Internet Explorer. This is not a defect in Connect Daily, or the Dojo editor, but a defect in Internet Explorer.","Speed","Some browsers are faster than others. On our test computer, it takes 4 seconds for the rich text editor to display using Internet Explorer 8. Using the same computer with Firefox 3.10, the page displays in 1.6 seconds. If you're having performance problems, you may want to consider switching browsers.","Exporting","The various export screens will export the data as you enter it. You should be aware that not all programs will handle importing HTML correctly.","Disabling the Rich Text Editor","The Rich Text Editor can be disabled by going to System | Configuration | Appearance. Set the option for Enable Rich Text editor for event description to No.","Search Engine Optimizing Your Calendar","Connect Daily is search engine friendly. Because of it's design, it permits search engines and spiders to index the calendar information.","The same things you do to optimize a regular web page apply to Connect Daily events. In general, you should put a pretty good description of your event in the long description field for Connect Daily. The more content you have for your event, the more likely your calendar will score highly for the event's key words.","We also recommend that you enable the option to Display Event Detail in Week View and List View in the Setup Public Calendar Viewing screen. If you enable this feature, then robots indexing the week view and list view pages will see the complete details for your event.","If you are displaying your calendar in an IFRAME, it will still be crawled by search engines. By default, the search engine links will open the calendar directly, not the IFRAME. You can force your page to be displayed in an IFRAME using Javascript. Here's some sample code to do this:","An IFRAME is an HTML In-Line Frame. It can be used to create a portal within a web page. The content of the inline frame or portal is supplied by a URL to another web page. It is not necessary for the URL to be on the same server. In other words, the IFRAME content can come from an entirely different page or site.","For the technically minded, the IFRAME acts like a scrollable DIV where you can set a source URL for the content. ","The HTML code for an IFRAME would look something like this:","&lt;iframe frameborder=&quot;no&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; id=&quot;calendarframe&quot; ","src=&quot;http://calendar.sample.com/View.html&quot; width=&quot;690&quot; height=&quot;1024&gt;","&lt;/iframe&gt;","&lt;SCRIPT TYPE=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;","if (self.location==top.location)","	top.location.href='http://www.sample.com/calendar.html';","&lt;/SCRIPT&gt;","Place this code in the custom footer for your calendar.

In other words, with UTF-8 it would be possible to display both Russian and German text on the same page. Using an ISO-8859-xx series single-byte character set would not permit this. The only issue that may arise is that some older browsers may not display UTF-8 characters correctly. If you need compatibility with these older browsers, it will be necessary to add an entry to your configuration.properties file to override the default character set. The entry would appear as:","charset=iso-8859-1","Set the character set to the appropriate value for your location. You should also ensure that the content type header specified in any custom header files is appropriate to the character set you are using. A sample content type header is shown below.","&lt;HEAD&gt;<br>    &lt;META http-equiv=&quot;Content-Type&quot; content=&quot;text/html; charset=utf-8&quot;&gt;<br>    &lt;LINK REL=&quot;stylesheet&quot; HREF=&quot;style.css&quot; TYPE=&quot;text/css&quot;&gt;<br>    &lt;TITLE&gt;Connect Daily Web Calendaring System&lt;/TITLE&gt;<br>&lt;/HEAD&gt;","You should also make sure that the character set/collation selected for your database is compatible with the character set you configure for Connect Daily.
