Description: Really simple calendar generator, it makes a calendar 3 months across and 4 down. Embedded within are 2 functions – one makes each month, and the other just loops through all the months. This is a PHP4 script, but it should be fairly simple to convert to PHP3 (hint: You’d have to initialize $sequence differently). There’s no comments, but it should be pretty obvious as to how it works, especially after reading up on the getdate() PHP function. License restricted to the use for the forces of good only.

<?php
/*
This is a simple calendar generator, consisting of two functions.
genYear() formats a table in a 12 unit grid, the arguments
are the year and columns, so
<?php echo genYear(2000,3); ?>
will print out a 3x4 calendar.
genMonth() formats subtables for each month. arguments are
year, month, and offset. the year and month can be entered
manually, but the genYear() function calls genMonth() with
the appropriate arguments. the offset is not necessary, but
allows for fancy formatting of the HTML output, which makes
flow control errors easier to spot.
<?php echo genMonth(2000,9," "); ?>
will print out a table for September 2000 with a 4 space
offset on every line of HTML.
This page has a simple form that shows the script in action.

I hope all of you have found this useful. I didn't expect
something I wrote in 5 minutes (originally, maybe like 45 now :)
as a sideline to my weblog would be so popular. Hack to your
heart's content!
