Event Manager is very easy to install. Follow the steps listed below:
- Download the eventmgr101.zip file to your computer and extract the
contents.
- Open eventmgr.php and edit the user variables that are commented as
such, including the password variable.
- Create a new directory on your
server such as eventmgr.
- Upload the eventmgr.php, events.txt,
and eventstyle.css files into
the new folder.
- CHMOD the events.txt file to 666 so that it is
write-able by the server.
Go to http://www.your-domain.com/eventmgr/eventmgr.php in your browser to test the script. You should see a table with 3 listings. These are
examples and can be removed by using the delete function, or clearing the
contents of the events.txt file. Each field is separated by a | character,
so manual editing of the file is possible should you desire to do so.
Click the admin button to enter new data. The fields are self-explanatory.
Dates fields are arranged in the following format: mm-dd-yy (numeric). If
you prefer the European date format (dd-mm-yy) you can edit the
eventmgr.php file and change the variables in the data validation section
that is commented beginning at line 81.
The page uses an external style sheet (CSS) for formatting. Edit
eventstyle.css if you want to change the look, colors, fonts, or other
attributes such as a background image. Both the HTML and CSS validate to W3C standards as is.
This page can be displayed in your browser by itself, loaded in a
frame, or an IFRAME, depending on your site layout. See the included file iframe.php
for an example of displaying in an IFRAME.
