Hello...I know there has to be an easy solution to my problem but I can't seem to find it! I need to link to an MS Outlook Calendar. The name of the calendar is "Leave/TDY". I've tried converting the forward slash to ascii, hex, unicode but I can't get it to work! Can anyone shed some light on the correct syntax?

<a href="outlook:\\Public Folders\All Public Folders\Leave/TDY">Leave/TDY</a>

Thanks!
 
Can the name of the calendar be changed? replace the / with a -? Not a very good practice to use / in file names

I totally agree...but unfortunately I'm just the web developer. ;-) If there isn't a solution then I'll have to seek out the owner of the calendar, but I'd like to know if it's possible to escape the character somehow.
