Making the calendar smaller

[evoke28]

Being messing around with the calendar module for a while. I have made it smaller but need alot smaller so it will fit in the side bar. it has nothing to do with the CSS because when i take out the style sheet the calender is the same size.

how does everyone else make their calendar smaller so it fits in the side bar.

here is my test site for the calendar.you can see what i mean.

evoke28,

it seems like the abbreviations of the days are still to big for your needs. If you go into \modules\Calendar\lang\en_US.php you can make the shortnames even shorter.....

thanks for the reply. open the en_US file and changed all the three letter days to one letter day.

like mon to m.  Just having problems ftp the en_US into the same folder. Keeps say permission denied. Looked around the forum and heard not to install modules using module Manager. Which i did with the calender module. I tried to chmod it with 777 but operation not permitted. it is chmod at the moment to 755.

They were saying a better way to install a module is through ftp.

Does anyone know any better ideas to force the folder to accept the file.

thanks for any help

Fixed the problem of uploading the en_GB. It was because i installed the the module with module Manager and the webserver then owned that folder. Got the hosting company to change the ownership from the webserver to me.

Anyway i changed the abreviation in the en_GB file to this:

$lang['cal_sun'] = 'S';
$lang['cal_mon'] = 'M';
$lang['cal_tues'] = 'T';
$lang['cal_wed'] = 'W';
$lang['cal_thurs'] = 'T';
$lang['cal_fri'] = 'F';
$lang['cal_sat'] = 'S';

It did the job. The calendar is nice and small and will now fit in the side bar when i do it.

thanks for help
