hi all I am looking for a simple way to create something like this so my client who is a teacher can edit his own schedule.
I have wepyep but Max said its not good for this, which I really don’t understand as Its only one form and does not need to be saved. any advice? especially one I can integrate with FW?
I am guessing that Max is meaning that WY isn’t good if you expect it to do anything besides show the schedule. It can’t collect data (reserve a class) or show a class as booked once N people reserve it. You’d have to combine it with the PHP Feedback Form Action, and you’d have to manage the “booked” part manually, based on the number of e-mails you got.
There are some booking/reservation scripts available at PHPJabbers, and others on this list have expressed a great deal of enthusiasm for them (and the developers, as far as being Freeway-friendly). I have seen the actual code, and with my propeller-beanie firmly in place, can tell you that the code is shockingly old-fashioned at a technical level. Not to say it won’t work, or hasn’t worked for others, but not how I would do it, to pick a name at random.

Hey Walter thx
right the PHPjabber was not looking good to me.
I do not need to collect data by any means. it is merely to show his class schedule so he can go in and change every week
It is not to run a script showing a full class at all, nor to reserve a class. just for information
it seems a simple enough task to accomplish with web yep, maybe it was a misunderstanding. I sent Max another email to explain the simpler need
Being that you already use WebYep this suggestion is not ideal but, Perch has a wonderfully flexible calendar app. I use it for a school. Of course it’s part of a CMS so there’s the redundancy aspect, but it should be possible to set it up to work alongside WY and use Perch simply for managing the calendar. I know, it’s not ideal and a bit heavy-handed…
