Hi,

I'm contemplating diving into the code by implementing something that
I've often wanted:  a way to integrate Plucked pages with the Palm
calendar functionality, similar to the way that Plucker already
integrates mailto: with the PalmOS mailer.

I'm imagining a link in the viewer that, when clicked on, pops up an
appointment scheduling screen.  If the screen is "OK"'d (perhaps after
editing), an appointment is added to the Calendar database.

There's no HTML out there right now that supports this (or is there?),
so obviously this wouldn't be useful for Plucking random web pages.
But I'm starting to create a lot of my own web pages with scripts, and
some of them suggest the ability to add appointments (movie listings,
Heavens Above, etc).

My HTML language design aesthetic sense is weak... would it be more
tasteful to implement this as an extension to the anchor tag, or to
invent a new tag?  If it's an anchor tag, does it make more sense to
try to squeeze everything one string (like mailto: does with recipient
and sender) or to break it out into multiple attributes?

Or is this whole thing a stupid idea to begin with?

Brian
