Let me know which clients this file works on and which ones it doesn’t. I’m particularly interested in the description field. Most clients ignore the html formatting and I’m not worried about that * I am interested in missing text. The commas and semicolons are escaped * hopefully the clients properly process that and show non-escaped commas and semicolons. (See the Feb 2 event, for an example.)

I am sure we would all be willing to try them with our favorite calendaring application and maybe even read the RFC to help figure out what is wrong. > Regarding the ward directory, I’m hopeful this calendar export will > prove useful enough to convince those who own the decision to allow the > same for the ward list. Hopeful as well... Then I can get rid of another screen scraper and the support that goes along with it. I assume the concern is the "evil mormon, multiple-level marketeer" that uses this data to push his latest skin products and vitamins. Of course, the data would be limited to members of his own ward (who know where to find him) and members have the option keeping their data private. -stacey. _______________________________________________ Ldsoss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ldsoss.org/mailman/listinfo/ldsoss ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NOTICE: This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
