Hi Brad, I have investigated this for an application here. I haven't found anything right off the shelf that will do this. Anything I have been able to come up with would require quite a bit of custom programming. I had found a pretty nice calendar applet in Java, but it would still need a lot of programming to make it do anything like you want. A higher performance approach would be to use an ActiveX control, but this would limit you to clients with Windows machines running MS IE browser (for the most part). Another approach would be to use all HTML forms with some scripting on the client side and process everything at the server with CGI or some other server scripting application, but this is really tough to do unless you have access to the web server (as I assume you don't). Some web hosting services permit user written CGI scripts, but most don't for security reasons.
