Hi,
Has anybody had any experience of using Google/apps, specifically the google calender part?
I have a job management app written in A5 and I would like to have a button that allows the data to be published to a google calendar (under our google/apps setup)
I have the url text to do this, here is an example.
Its not the smoothest process, the button fires up a browser pointing to a generated url (actually generating the url is the the plan, not implemented yet), the user logs in (logins automatic if he's done so already), and they are presented with a confirmation screen. What I can't find is a way to drop the event into a particular calander, for example I have set up a shared calender for Research Jobs and one for Other Job Types. At the moment, its purely under the users main cal. I suppose I could create a user for the Research Job Types and Other Job Types, but then the logon procedure would become messy (users having to use different logons depending on the type of job they want to create an event for). Unless there is a way to automatically pass the logon variables in the url?
Also, have created an xdialog box that pops the calander up quite well, but would prefer for the browser to be directly embedded in a standard form, is that possible? We are also getting an error when opening the form through xdialogue, the error appears outside A5 as well, but if you open the link in IE6, it appears as an error in the status line as apposed to a pop up that stopes the site being rendered unless you give a confirmation to continue. Is it possible to get it to render in Firefox from xdialogue as the error doesnt appear in this browser, or is there a way in xdialogue for it to ignore the error?
