What is a calendar of events?
Calendars can be hard-coded by HTML programmers to include lists of events. A more effective way to do this is to use a database and graphical interface to do it for you. Simply, this means something that looks like a diary, which can accept event information and can store this information in a database.
In this example:
The picture below shows the graphical user interface (that's a posh way of saying "what you see"). When a user clicks on a date, they are given an oportunity to enter their details. Once complete, the user is emailed to ensure that their email address is valid and asked to activate their entry.

The main page in this example shows the result of the calendar submissions. If no events are saved for that day it will tell you "No events have been recorded for today".
