Setup:
Setup information & variables can be found in:
includes/application_top.php
The first thing you will notice about this file is the quot;testingquot;
server settings. These can be felt alone, unless you wish to setup
a testing server on your Win32 machine. In that case I would
suggest looking towards WAMP5 to accomplish that task. Otherwise,
setup the Web server settings where appropriate.
http://www.en.wampserver.com/
Much of the 'application_top.php' file is setup constants, which
are already defined properly. Web server and file server paths
are defined and PHP include paths are extended.
MAIL_MYNAME and MAIL_MYEMAIL must be set for the Web server to
allow Sendmail to function properly.
Make sure to properly set the SQL database connection constants:
DB_SERVER, DB_SERVER_USERNAME, DB_SERVER_PASSWORD,
DB_DATABASE
Check with your ISP if you are not sure of your database connection.
Towards the bottom of the 'application_top.php' file are the
majority of the booking calendar settings.

2. BOOKING_TIME_INTERVAL:
This is an extremely important setting!!!!!!!
Once set, it can not be modified. I recommend setting the interval
to either '30' or '15' (seconds). This should suffice for most
booking calendar situations.
MIN_BOOKING_HOUR and MAX_BOOKING_HOUR
This two setting are also extremely important! Once set, you can
expand the range, but it has not been fully tested yet. Reducing the
range would be more challenging and is not yet supported.
location_db_name
This array provides the mapping between location key and the schedule
MySQL DB table field name. Is you add additional keys, make sure to
add the columns to the 'booking_schedule' table.
location_display
This array provides the mapping between location keys and the
display text to be used by the Booking Calendar.
Requirements for authentication (login) and user settings can
also be found at the end of this script.
MySQL:
Once you've defined the basic setup parameters it's time to
setup your MySQL tables. MySQL SQL setup can be found in
includes/sql/mysql.sql
I would recommend using phpMyAdmin or some other MySQL tool
to execute the setup query. Make sure to add columns for
additional locations in the 'booking_schedule' table, if needed.

FCK Editor 2.0 Beta 1:
The booking calendar takes full advantage of one of the best

3. WYSIWYG text editors available, FCK Editor. Now in version 2.0,
it supports Internet Explorer, Mozilla and Netscape browsers.
http://www.fckeditor.net/
FCK Editor directory: editor
Setup file for the FCK Editor: fckconfig.js
CSS for the FCK Editor: editor/skins/office2003/fck_editor.css
The FCK Editor distribution has been trimmed down. For additional
skins and languages, please visit the FCK Editor download page.
overLIB 4.00:
Also integrated into the calendar is the overLIB javascript
which handles the creation of the popup information boxes.
http://www.bosrup.com/web/overlib/
CSS/Fonts can be found in the setup file: overlib.js
Beta Warning:
While this is the first official release of the phpBookingCalendar -
booking calendar script, I can not guarantee that future versions will
be backwards compatible. Indeed, the database location mapping will
most likely be integrated into a future administration section.
Thank you for reading all the way down here ;)
