Calendar Plugin

The CalendarPlugin can be used to generate a monthly calendar in a wiki page. It's handy for PersonalWikis.

Individual dates in the calendar link to specially named wiki pages. The names for the "day pages" are by default formed by appending the date to the pagename on which the calendar appears.

This feature was inspired by Manila, and first implemented by GaryBenson. It was later implemented as a WikiPlugin by JeffDairiki.

Usage:

 <?plugin Calendar?>

Patch for 1.2

GaryBenson wrote the first calendar implementation for PhpWiki 1.2. (Since 1.2 doesn't support plugins, it uses a ###CALENDAR### token as a trigger.) Gary provides a screenshot at http://inauspicious.org/files/screenshots/calender.png, a patch (on 1.2.0), and calendar.php (which renders a view of the year.)
