Vista-like Ajax Calendar

The Vista-like Ajax Calendar (vlaCalendar) version 2 is a unobtrusive web version of the slick and profound Windows Vista taskbar calendar, by using the mootools javascript framework, AJAX, XHTML, CSS and PHP.

VlaCalendar version 2.1 runs mootools version 1.2, which is included in the download. The full core download of mootools version 1.2 is sufficient to run vlaCalendar with.

VlaCalendar version 2.0 runs on both mootools version 1.11 and 1.2b2 beta, which are both included in de download. Both use almost every mootools component (except the plugin components).

Mootools is a compact, modular, object-oriented javascript framework designed for the intermediate to advanced javascript developer. It allows you to write powerful, flexible, and cross-browser code with its elegant, well documented, and coherent API.
