I have a page that lays out a calendar dynamically and I am having trouble with tags being moved around when opened with FP (which is the tool they give me to use). I am trying to come up with a new idea on how to set it up. It currently has the calendar setup within a table and I would like to keep it that way.

- The first consideration is how many weeks should be included on the calendar:

It needs to be based on a 4-4-5 breakdown. January has 4 weeks, February has 4 weeks, March has 5 weeks, and so on. On months that have 4 weeks, I would like to hide the week five rows.

- Each week should consist of:
1.Row 1 - The days of the week (static).
2.Row 2 - The Month (Name) and the Day (Number). These values need to be pulled from a db.
3.Row 3 - A dropdown box with a list of values that is also puled from a db.

Is it possible to do this without dynamically drawing the table? FP gets confused with the dynamic writing of the tags involved to draw the table that way. The results is that anytime the file is opened with FP, the tags get scrambled and I have to figure out how to fix them again. I have to fix them using Notepad and then it is fine until the next time someone opens it in FP.

DeCojute,

I did not take it as derogitory. The red was chosen for me - it is the team color. Teens like bright colors anyway.

mwolfe,

Wow! I have been up in the hundreds before and still didn't get it. Finally gave up. At least I now know it is possible, makes me feel kind of stupid though.
