I would like to change the default "events" link on the main page to point directly to the full current month calendar - ie go to http://forumDNSname/forum/calendar.asp instead of the little script popup month display.  Is that easily doable?  Might be a desirable switch to have in the calendar admin section in a future version.

Also, on the mobile device version of the forum, the "events" link seems not to appear at all.  So the calendar is basically inaccessible to anyone using a Droid or an iThing.  Is this intentional or do I have something misconfigured?

I'll answer my own question, since no one else would.  I modified includes/status_bar_header_inc.asp line 175 as follows:
If blnCalendar AND blnACode = False Then Response.Write ("&nbsp;&nbsp;<span id=""CalLink"" onclick=""getAjaxData('ajax_calendar.asp" & strQsSID1 & "', 'showCalendar');showDropDown('CalLink', 'dropDownCalendar', 210, 0);"" class=""dropDownPointer""><img src=""" & strImagePath & "calendar." & strForumImageType & """ alt=""" & strTxtEvents & """ title=""" & strTxtEvents & """ style=""vertical-align: text-bottom"" /> <a href=""calendar.asp" & strQsSID1 & """>" & strTxtEvents & "</a></span>")
'   Old verion   
'    If blnCalendar AND blnACode = False Then Response.Write ("&nbsp;&nbsp;<span id=""CalLink"" onclick=""getAjaxData('ajax_calendar.asp" & strQsSID1 & "', 'showCalendar');showDropDown('CalLink', 'dropDownCalendar', 210, 0);"" class=""dropDownPointer""><img src=""" & strImagePath & "calendar." & strForumImageType & """ alt=""" & strTxtEvents & """ title=""" & strTxtEvents & """ style=""vertical-align: text-bottom"" /> <script language=""JavaScript"" type=""text/javascript"">document.write('" & strTxtEvents & "')</script><noscript><a href=""calendar.asp" & strQsSID1 & """>" & strTxtEvents & "</a></noscript></span>")
The deleted code is red strikethrough.  Seems to work well.  Please advise if this will cause any other side-effects.

I really would like to know if there is a solution to the no-handheld-access-to-the-calendar issue.

OK, so today is my day to talk to myself.  I hope someone else is benefiting from this one-sided conversation.

I changed line 79 of includes/status_bar_header_inc.asp to add the following:
'modified to display events link on mobile browsers
    Response.Write (" <img src=""" & strImagePath & "calendar.png"" alt=""" & strTxtEvents & """ title=""" & strTxtEvents & """ /><a href=""calendar.asp" & strQsSID1 & """>" & strTxtEvents & "</a>")
Seems to show the events icon, link and actual calendar correctly on mobile browser now.  I have only tried viewing it on my HTC Thunderbolt with both the Android Browser and Firefox, but it seems to work correctly.
