So you ask the Catalog for all items for a given user and then loop through all these items for every day displayed by the calender? Why not, depending on what would be speediest: 1. Call the Catalog for every day displayed and ask the it for items on that day. or 2. Call the Catalog once the first time the code in the calender tag is rendered (test for day one?), ask for the data for the current month, and store it in a REQUEST variable. Then loop through this limited set. In the last case, you could even make a temporary dictionary keyed on day of the month. This is quite simple. You should try and find a balance between number of loops and number of calls to the Catalog. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | T: +31 35 7502100 F: +31 35 7502111 | mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ---------------------------------------------
